Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files.
Huge thanks to Cie who gave me this wonderful Sunday Selections image.
The meme was then continued by River at Drifting through life.
Sadly she has now stepped aside (though she will join us some weeks), and I have accepted the mantle.
The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post
some
photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to me.
Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
I usually run with a theme. Snippets from home this week.
Starting with skyscapes. I continue with the dawn patrols, and these are from three very different dawns.
Notice the 'watch cocky' perched on the lamp post looking for signs of movement at the feeders...
Then to the garden. We have had another wet week and some of the garden has been beaten down by it. The double poppies continue to make a brave display.
I particularly liked seeing the seed pod emerging while the petals formed a tutu around its base...
Andrew inspired the last bit of this post. For more years than I care to count we have been making Christmas cakes for family and friends. They come in all sizes. The large and the very large ones have been made, and here are photos from the (hopefully) final batch this year which was made up of small cakes, and slightly larger ones to savour over a couple of sittings...
The fruit and nut mix which has been soaking in rum and brandy for a week.
Ready for the oven.
Larger ones we made earlier which have just been 'watered'
Out of the oven.
A little later I will do some more baking for people who don't like/cannot eat fruitcake.
I hope your week is productive - and delicious.
