		<title>Visual Tuesday: Daphne</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though we had rain and sleet today, there&#8217;s no denying that spring is on its way. The daphne by my front door is just beginning to bloom and I&#8217;m being teased by tantalizing whiffs of fragrance. Can&#8217;t wait to glory in the full blooms and intoxicating aroma every time the door opens.

Ahhhh&#8230;I love spring [...]]]></description>

		<title>Puzzler Friday: Tropical Fish</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s wet and rainy here in the Pacific Northwest, as it should be this time of year. That doesn&#8217;t mean I can&#8217;t dream of sun and sand and warm tropical waters *happy sigh*
Here&#8217;s a nice specimen of a butterflyfish; the kind I enjoyed snorkeling with in Hawaii&#8230;

		<title>Visual Tuesday: Hawaiian Dreams</title>
		<description><![CDATA[DH and traveled to Hawaii a few years back, and I quickly fell in love with plumeria blossoms. They&#8217;re not only beautiful, but they have the most heavenly scent&#8230;ahhhh.
Just looking at this pictures takes me back to happy times: sandy beaches, sparkling blue water, colorful reef fish, and warm nights heady with exotic fragrance.

		<title>Puzzler Friday: Olympic Tribute</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though I&#8217;ve lived a lot of years in very wintry places (most notably Montana and Colorado), I grew up in Oklahoma. Because of that, my winter sports abilities were stunted.
I love watching the Winter Olympics, but THIS is my version of &#8220;extreme skiing&#8221;&#8230;
