Palm Desert Guest Blog
My friend Marianne in on vacation in Palm Desert, California. She sent these beautiful roses.
When she saw them, she said she thought of me. ❤️
Marianne M is guest blogger today.
We need some color to break up the winter gray!

June Gallery of Roses in Berlin
The first photo a rose bouquet I purchased from the Winterfeldplatz Market. The other roses seen while walking.
Rose season in full bloom.
At all stages of blossoming, they are lovely to see. When I went to find rose quotations to accompany the photos there were over three hundred to choose from including the mention of thorns, of course.
Decided on a single most well known quotation spoken by Juliet but I’m sure more thoughts on roses will come to your own mind.
(And on a side note Kiez Eis https://kiezeis.de/ on Winterfeld Strasse is featuring Rosewasser Ice Cream in addition to the rhubarb and asparagus flavors I’ve mentioned recently.)
“WHAT’S IN A NAME? THAT WHICH WE CALL A ROSE, BY ANY OTHER NAME WOULD SMELL AS SWEET.”
Juliet– William Shakespeare
A Dozen Today
A dozen roses.
A dozen eggs.
A dozen doughnuts.
The Apostles.
Place settings for twelve.
A dozen years since you were born.
Twelve times twelve all the reasons we love you.
Cupcake Amongst the Roses
The pink blush roses in the canning jars, sat on the kitchen counter this morning. We spent the night due to the blowing snow and unplowed roads. We were having coffee and muffins, scrambled eggs at the farmhouse in Crestline.
There were cupcakes, baked by EB Cakes leftover from Saturday night’s anniversary party.

Weekly Photo Challenge: Yellow
In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “Yellow.”
Yes, they said they threw us a curveball with the challenge for yellow right in the midst of silver and red and green holiday colors. No lemons available in the house.
