June 28/08

i hope you're not wasting this beautiful day! after what seemed like weeks of severe weather warnings (tornadoes, hail and torrential downpours!) we have a Saturday that is behaving like a lady. sunny, but not hot....breezy, but not a tornado. we like this Saturday lady. she should come around more often.

to take advantage, i called up a friend and we went walking - meeting halfway in the city and then walking for nearly 2 hrs (complete with a pitstop at Forbidden Flavours for a crushed ice bevvy). this is a big deal for me because i'm working on increasing my endurance, might i add: with a summer cold. bam!

on a side note, i had these lovely gals sitting at my desk all last week:


i have never seen peonies with just a touch of pink in the centre of the flower...here's a close-up of that:

they smelled as beautiful as they look!
