Hello Seasons Bloggers
Again – had a super fun time visiting all of you where I came across the love for life, inventiveness, and beautiful photography. You all sure know how to celebrate Spring! Hope you also got to visit some you didn’t know before.
By the way, I realized it may get too hard to limit the photos to this season, so you now you can link photos of loved ones, specific celebrations or memorials, etc..
Photo link is open Sunday May 8 through Wednesday May 11 to 7 pm, Pacific time
Didn’t have to start life from scratch (that would be so difficult!) these little thoughts below are inspired by the ones who represent the different “moms” in my life.
Many will have parties, get togethers, or celebrations this weekend. Others are alone. By choice, or not. We can reach out though in a way the other needs us to, a few hours forgetting about our own needs.

One may be excellent
Two may be stunning
but nothing heals the soul more
than to share it in community
Crepes filled with savory yummies
where the Ladies with the Red Hats convene
not me, for I’m purple
all the way
*
Beauty is easily found
not easily to let go
as much as I desire
I step aside
so you will have your turn
and we can gather memories
to an enormous mountain
enough to last our life time,
and the ones who come after us.
The path before me
I walk
taking nothing for granted
what is here today
maybe not be there tomorrow
savor what I have
today

Remembering the one I call Mama Barnes having no children of her own,
who shaped my thinking, faith, and courage
and who drove her husband (sometimes) crazy because of the vitality she had

Hello Jeannette
Love that bloom.
Thank you for your kind note and offer. Yes. I would need your email since your comments come to me as “noreply-comment” in blogger. You can email me at rmacwheeler at gmail.
I’m not sure what you mean by the “Hunter blue-black one”…oh…maybe that was one of my concept titles/images.
I very much appreciate your offer to give me an opportunity to get in front of your followers. Thank you very much.
Regards, Mac

Very pretty path.
The spices I use for my lamb are:
1 1/2 tbsp paprika
1 tbsp cumin
1 tbsp coriander
1 1/2 tbsp white sugar
2 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cardamon
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cloves
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Then I add a pinch of chipotle pepper, red pepper flakes, turmeric. We like a bit of spice here.

That crepe looked delicious! It is true to enjoy all we can each day. I’d enjoy walking the shady path you showed.
I hope you had a very Happy Mother’s Day–we celebrated a little early on Friday so my children could enjoy the day with the grandchildren.
