flowers, a fort, & some food

my christmas amaryllis bloomed and faded.

i left it planted in my windowsill.

the pods beneath the blooms have now split open,

revealing these tightly-packed, papery seeds.

beauty at every stage along the way.

on friday, which was rainy & cold,

ned declared it perfect fort-building weather.

he spent the weekend under the kitchen table.

he even slept under there both nights.

to redeem myself after a weekend

of soda & scones,

i made a smoothie,

some green juice,

and a big pot of split pea soup.
