Winter is finally supposed to hit tonight. (Low’s ~10F, 6 to 10 inches of snow, high ~15F tomorrow.) But New Year’s was sunny and pushing 50F. I even harvested a little lettuce.
Grasses look good.
Pulmonaria is still green (mostly).
Bittersweet wreath by the driveway.
The stiff breezes got the seedheads all pointing the same way.
These are from the weekend before Christmas when we had a little winter preview.
Late to the party, as usual. (And after totally blowing off November.)

And some bonus poinsettias (dry brushed):
Finally posting a few pix from over Thanksgiving holiday.
Grasses and blue bottles.
More bottles.
Mollinia.
If you missed the pepper-spraying cop at UC Davis, it’s risen to ‘internet meme’ status. I felt obligated to contribute to the pepper spraying cop site at tumblr.
Some think of pepper spray as a food ingredient. But if you’d like to know where the pepper spray in question ranks on the Scoville scale, see About pepper spray.
Late to the party, as usual. (In fact, I’ve broken my record for late.) These geraniums (err pelargoniums) were supposed to be in flower in August for my daughter’s wedding. (They would have complemented the bridesmaids’colors.) Instead, they’ve waited until I put them in a cool room to remain in suspended animation for the winter to start cranking out blooms nonstop.
