posted by julie on Thursday, May 31, 2007

its the last day of may, my favourite month of the year... summer is definitely here...

so beautiful in their decay..

i love the crown shape on these forming pommegranates..

this is how we eat watermelon here...with cold salty white cheese..

I have always loved sitting on the floor and i love our new floor cushions...

   I join Jenny and Jen on the watermelon combo; sounds delicious!
   
   Love those floor cushions - got similar ones in teal and green but those are a lot smaller than your fab cushions!

   oh too funny! I was thinking that I wanted to try some watermelon like that, when I read everyone else's comments:)
   
   I like those floor cushions. We need some at our house, as I am always sitting on the floor and my husband is always saying that is why we have a couch:)

   I love all these pictures. I have never seen a pommegranate growing, only in the market. I think that is soooo cool. I learn something new everytime I come to visit.

   The pommes are beautiful! I just love their shape. That picture is makes me want to create a quilted wallhanging featuring pommes- I can really see it in fabric!
   
   Thanks for the inspiration!

   I love those pommes and I see them hanging on their origin "place" for the first time. I love to cut them open, see the beautiful red inside, paint them, draw them...eat them!
   And watermelon with cheese...I'll give it a try.
   We've got floor cushions,too and I like much more sitting on them, when we are together talking. It's a kind of active sitting on them!

   I've never tried watermelon like that before... I'm not much of a cheese nibbler but I'll give it a whirl next summer.
   see you, grache xx
