Surprise!!!!

Some of my favorites things are brought to me by birds or the wind or a fortuitous drive down a different street on the way to work.

Nigella sative, planted last year in a different part of the garden.  Never bloomed,  I was sad.  Oops, there it is.

  Nicotiana,  green, grows tall, a good cut flower.  We had it last summer, it has returned.  V. welcome.

One of two concrete urns, empty but eager, found at a yard sale last Saturday.  23.00 the pair.  It's good to leave for work early in the summer.

And my favorite surprise?  A little  welcome token on the front door from GG.  A few of her onions and some lavender.

Sometimes it's good to just take a step back and let life unfold as it will.  I couldn't have scripted it any better.
