JUST  CAN'T  STOP  SMILING....

Beauty... But deadly beauty.... -sigh-

Isn't that pretty?  Tiny purple and yellow flowers...

.

I think it is so pretty.  And it seems as if it likes me.  That white you see, is the house siding, under the den windows.  The den, where I have my computer desk.  :-)

.

See?  Doesn't that seem as if it is trying to come to me?  ,-)))))))))

.

But the thing is......  It is Deadly Nightshade.  Poisonous.

 Lyte urges growers 'to be carefull to see to it and to close it in, that no body enter into the place where it groweth, that wilbe enticed with the beautie of the fruite to eate thereof.' (source)

My husband has pulled and dug it out.  But it returns.  It returns. 

.

Best to take Lyte's advice (whomever he may have been) and go after it, again. 

.

No matter how pretty,  -sigh-  It has no place in polite society.  Or in one's back yard.

Rainy and recovery....

Our hearth room....  Drapes pulled and little string of faerie lights on.  While our grand daughter recovers from having her 4 wisdom teeth out, on Monday.

~

She has been laying low and taking her meds, with soft food and has been quite good.  But today "could be" the worst day.  She is in "her little nest" on the couch.  It's rainy and cool, so I straightened out her pillows.  Made 2 blankets "neat" and put them on her, and around her.  And quiet prevails.  :-)

At noon time, "Thor" (Noah Syndergaard) is supposed to be pitching for the Mets.  We can have that on the tv, with sound off, if she wishes.  And she can sleep right through it too, if she wishes.  I don't mind sound off.  With my hearing loss, I read the captions, rather than listen, anyway.  ,-)

So, with not much going on here, and rainy weather, not good for photos....  I'll post some lovely pictures from "Victoria" magazine.

Mmmmmmm, aren't they lovvvvvvvvvvely...............????????
