fresh lemons or limes I pick
them from my front yard

If you missed them here, I published my Friday FAVE Fives at Happily Retired Gal this week along with some unusual Sky Shots and pretty blossoms for Pink Saturday along with this week's Yard Art too.
Delightfully, I won Lily Hydrangea's Blogoversary Giveaway at Long Island Daily Photo! If you've never visited her blog you might enjoy checking it out. She takes lovely photos and creates beautiful things to sell in her Zazzle Gift Shoppe. I get to choose 5 greeting cards and a sheet of stamps. When they arrive, I'll share on one of my blogs ... just because.

I just dropped by Brenda's Blog from Paraguay and found an entertaining 'visual' ... Dogs in Slow Motion ... laughed myself silly and decided to share, just because. You may have seen this commercial already, but I don't watch much television so it's new to me. Enjoy;-)
Wonderful Weekend!

Does this lovely garden really belong to a grandmother down the street? The Costa Measa picture is the most interesting, because even clicking did not really reveal what it is or it's purpose. It is pretty in an odd, claustrophobic sort of way. I'm picturing you sitting outside with your wonderful lemon tree, Molly and kitty, with the new Vaio. A lovely thought.
Love your post, beautiful reflections! & Your Spring seems to be like our Summer.
Thanks for the mention HRG. You are so sweet. Have a great weekend.
: )
A lemon tree in your front yeard! I'm jealous! That is definitely fresh!
That lemon tree is so cool. And I love your cat. What a beauty. ~
Delightful post today! All of your photos were fun to look at. Have a great weekend, karen
I am craving those flowers!
That is a pretty little fountain feature.
A wonderful collection today, they all speak to me. Beautiful spring blooms and your cat reminds me of my "small cat". A little black barn cat the was so sweet.
Very nice collage and the cat is just beautiful, what a shiny fur ! How nice that you can pick your lemons just from the tree ! I don't even have apples, lol !
The Camp has some pretty nice reflections in the water and on the wall. I wonder if the Lab across the street has any good reflections.
I don't think lemons and limes could be any fresher than off your own tree! I like both your mosaic of Grandma's Garden and your watery reflections.
Nice shots, I like the reflections from the mall. Water is soothing and refreshing, somehow.
Blessings!
Your spring garden flower collages are so pretty and fresh lemons off the tree sound wonderful.
You did a great job with all the theme. I love the beautiful flower shots and the fresh fruit on the trees. The water garden with the tall reeds in the water is so peaceful. Great post.
Lovely images. I especially like the small reflections of gardens at the top of the page. Very rich.
These are all incredible. Again, have to say the color and beauty of your world fill my own with a wonderful, quiet joy on this side of the continent. Thanks.
your color carnival and all the other shots too - especially kitty. I love kitties :-)
Wow, you've covered so much! Love the flowers and the pups and cats! Great post :)
These are wonderful! So many beautiful photographs.
What beautiful colours in your world. And Miss Kitty is a gorgeous cat!
Lovely reflections!
Somedays I struggle to get one small post together and you put so much in each one on each of your blogs.
I loved the shot of the chairs - you knew I'd day that didn't you - with the lemon tree. So cool and the grass looks so lush and green.
Your flower mosaic is beautiful - a breath of springtime!
Lovely sunny photos - they've cheered me!
It's a sunny day here too but still chilly and the weatherman is telling me to expect SNOW on Tuesday as I type! WTF - it's Spring?????
Beautiful mosaics!

Sure got the color thing going in that mosaic. Handsome kitty too.

Beautiful stuff on here! Ms. Kitty looks like a wonderful companion, perfect for the cold weather we're having here today. Cheers!
Beautiful photos, inspiring color and uplifting words! I wanna be there.
Yep, you're a lot greener than we are. But then, you don't get our kind of snow.
love, Love, LOVE all of these! We had a black kitty named Mama Kat, who lived to the ripe old age of 21+. Hang in there, Ms. Kitty...you've got quite the life!
Your kitty doesn't look a day over 12!
And OMG I would love to have a lemon tree outside!
Oh I just love all of your photos today. The reflection shot is really amazing, so clear and still. And how wonderful to be able to get fresh citrus right from your yard! But my favorites are of your grand Ms. Kitty - she's beautiful. My cat lays around all day, but she's only 4, so I guess she's just lazy :) Kathy
Your neighborhood and yard looks so peaceful and relaxing. I could sit outside with Molly and Ms. Kitty and just enjoy the view!
What an incredible garden! It is truly lovely, and I enjoyed seeing your pets, too. My MIL's cat lived to be 21 or 22. Your cat, though, looks to be in even better shape. I love it that she has lived that long.
The video was lots of fun. Thanks for sharing!
XO,
Sheila :-)
Another lovely series of photographs, enjoyed them all. Thanks for sharing and have a great week.
I love your kitty! She looks like she is enjoying it outside in the warm sunshine! Thanks for stopping by today!
The garden is bursting with rainbow colors, so beautiful! Can't beat that fresh fruit from the tree, we always get ours from the neighboring country.
Beautiful photos as always!
A blessed week.
This is a lovely selection of subjects. Ms Kitty has found something colourful to give her shade. I envy you being able to grow lemons and limes and I did like the video clip.
Gorgeous gardens!
Lovely series of flowers. And I always enjoy seeing Ms Kitty sweet face.
It must be great to have your own lemons and limes.
Lovely as always, thanks for sharing the beauty:)
Oh the lemon tree, the lemon tree...I'm trying hard not to want, but I can't seem to help it...WANT!!! Want that lemon tree!!!!
grandmas garden is months ahead of ours. I can't put impatiens out until the cold nights have passed. It was cloudy and rainy last night so we didn't have any frost.
What a wonderful collage of flower pictures. Thanks for such a lovely post.
Ms Kitty is actually 20 years old? OMG! That has to be a record, right?
She can't really be that old, can she? You're pullin my leg, aren't you?! heheheee
Lovely colors in all the flowers in Granma´s garden :)
Cute cat as well !
My cat Sixten is 17 years old.
