Altered postcard from Svenja!

Svenja found two beautifully decorative creatures to arrange provocatively and reminds me on the back, 'the impossible is often the untried'. I will try harder and more often, inspired by Svenja.

#283/365 Spopod's tree

Spopod called this a tree of sorts. To my mind it is a tree with an African attitude. It makes me want to go back to my Peace Corps days and life under the jacaranda trees! Thanks Spopod!

something to add to from Laura Daniels

Exciting to have an unsolicited add and pass! We have a hosepipe ban so have been putting up waterbutts today in preparation for the spring in our English country garden. Perhaps that will figure in what I add?

overdue posting - mailart received

Always such a confusing thing to be an American mother living in England. We never really celebrated mothers day when I was growing up so no big deal to me but for some reason a big deal to my kids and whether to fete me on the English day or the American day has always been problematic.
