Crabapples

It's the time of year when you notice all the fruit on the trees are ripening.  I noticed these crabapples lying on a boulder and thought the scene looked very artistic, what do you think?  Good enough to paint, beautiful texture on the rocks!


McDonald's Canada has free coffee all this week until Sunday. I found out when I was at the grocery store and some McDonald's employees were walking through the parking lot with a large tray filled with small coffees. They asked me if I wanted one and then asked if they could have a photo taken with me. The guy said 'Don't worry, it's for internal use only'. I was already imagining my photo appearing in the local newspaper! Do you know that seniors over 60 get a 10% discount at McDonald's (well, the coffee anyway).

We were in Hong Kong and hubby bought 2 iced coffees to go. We really didn't care for the coffee because they had added some kind of sweetener. We prefer to drink our coffee with only skim milk and ice cubes. This is why we drink coffee we make at home almost exclusively.

I didn't know Mcdonalds was giving out free coffee, my husband doesn't like their coffee, only Tim Horton's for him, I don't drink coffee.I think the crab apples will be a beautiful painting,

I love this picture. I totally thought at first sight that you must have arranged the composition. But nature is a great artist herself as well! I love it.
