Out in the backyard


These series of photos taken about a week ago. When there was sun in Oregon. When the weather was in the upper 80’s and lower 90’s. In other words, perfect and gorgeous days welcoming the summer. Not like this week’s weather, blecchhh…, where the sun hid behind the clouds and the temperature never climbed past lower to mid 60’s. Fortunately, when I’m writing this, the sun decided to come out and the clouds disappeared somewhat.

That day I was thinking of taking some photos for Click! event which the theme for this month is Stacks. I could bake some cookies and stack them, but they’d take my time away, I wasn’t in the mood. I was looking for something simpler, something easier to do with the time on my hands at that moment. I did make some pizza for dinner that day because since I discovered a good recipe for pizza dough, I’m always in the mood for making pizza. And that pizza saved my day. I figured if I stacked pizza slices together, these could make a nice stacks. I spent sweet time in the backyard taking these photos…

I threw some oregano leaves and chive flowers with the slices since I love the color combination of the purple and green. My two chive plants grow big this year along with my oregano and sage, they’re sprouting beautiful purple flowers. I’m somewhat lazy doing any gardening this year, but I’m hoping to get tomato and zucchini plants this week. Hope it’s not too late!
