A Mourning Cloak. The ones I took yesterday didn't turn out; I couldn't get close enough. These are from last August (before I learned how to use the zoom feature.)
A view of one of my favorite beaches.
My youngest has her first school dance of the year tomorrow. She wanted to bring cookies but I was like, will cupcakes work? So I've gotta jump in the shower quick before we can run to the store. Got a little dirty digging in my garden. But this will be great; I can make a couple different types of cupcakes and not worry about a bunch sitting around here, tempting me.
I was invited to a bachelorette party tomorrow evening but I'd be passing even if there wasn't the school dance. Maybe if they were going out instead of having it at their home I'd think about it. But it's farther than I want to drive and I have no desire to spend the night with a bunch of drunk people, most of whom I probably don't know.
