My version of corn snow. This colored corn is indestructible. I thought the birds would peck away at it all winter, but they haven’t touched it. A life lesson.

This is not the post I had planned for you. I had this whole chatty post about preparing for spring written in my head, which segued into the benefits of learning something new to keep your brain (brainnzzz!) from atrophying, botanical gardens in winter, how people learn, competitiveness, yada, yada, yada. It was marvelous I tell ya, you would have loved it. And then the project I had it centered on went into epic fail and even the epic fail was so ugly that it wasn’t worth a picture (gray, wet cement). So, no post.
Life lesson #2: be flexible.
And then I thought, well OK, I have another FO, I can write about that.
And then I didn’t get it blocked, so that has to be postponed.
Life lesson #3: plan ahead.
So you’re getting a picture of corn in the snow. Because that seems to be the extent of my cleverness this week.
I’ll try to do better next time.
But don’t count on it. I believe atrophy is setting in.

OH! Here’s something you might like if you live in a snow state and are fearful of ever seeing green and living things again. My sister-in-law sent it in an e-mail. Click anywhere on the screen. Or hold your left mouse button down and scroll around.
There. A little lemonade to start your day.
I like the corn with snow – the colors are so vibrant.
The flower garden is just what I needed.
Love your corn photo! Snowy yet colorful. That flower garden is cool! It would make an awesome computer screen background for a while.
I think it’s lovely, and I covet your snow! They’re predicting some for Friday, but I’ll believe it when I crunch it underfoot!
I like that photo.
I hear you on projects not panning out. I’ve got a fail to photograph and blog about so I can rip it. feh
That is SO funny. I have posts that just dissolve in similar fashion. They don’t even leave a whiff of smoke behind them. Cornsnow works for me. (I don’t really like it…makes my knees hurt.)
I LOVE YOUR SISTER’S GARDEN. What a boost in this snowy drab world. Thank you!!! Oh, and the Indian corn? Only my squirrels will eat it. I think you did a yeoman’s job on this post for things not working out very well!
I think you did great!
Loved the “lemonade”! Also jealous of how quickly you learned those life lessons. I’m still working on #2 (although I did skip #1).
