chard, roses, Schulz, distractions, thinking, thinking.....

My newsest discovery is a perfect serving of perfectly seasoned and perfectly cooked chard. Yummm, thank you chard!

My mind is racing today but heirloom roses seems to be the one hting I can focus on. I think I am making the plunge and I am going to get a rose bush. Roses have presented themselves to me as difficult and for the more advanced green thumb or gardner. But this heirloom rose catalog i received is promising success and blooms. What is interesting to me  are the "rose rustlers" who go around finding old roses and saving them from extinction. I'm reading about where they go and where and how they find this roses. It is really quite  gossipy.

I'm in the middle of reading Schulz. Hmmmmm this guy....I don't know, but my friend read the book and says she now knows what's behind those lil comics and can't enjoy them like she once did. By the time I got to page eight I was already jaded.

Back to lovely distractions. It's great to have that sort of fickle thinking that catches waves of inspirations and thoughts and just rides them out till the next one comes along. It really didn't work for me at all in an academic setting. It is however, much appreciated and better suited for real life.
