milkweed

week 29 in my “this is where i am from” year long project:

Milkweeds grew behind the house, by the bulkhead – a perfect spot for finding monarch caterpillars and observing the wondrous transformation in a mayonnaise jar. This time of year always makes me think of it.

Regarding my tardiness this week: I missed my Wednesday post deadline and I’ll tell you a little bit about why.  I’ve been super busy all spring and summer, no breathing room at all, dancing as fast as I can.   A few weeks ago a new project came up that I so wanted to work  on – couldn’t not work on- so I did.  I finished this week  and it was really, really fun and worth the extra effort. I’ll tell you a bit more about it next week.
