Broken Crocus

Spring Crocus in bloom
Broken under careless foot
Beautiful still

Is it Art?


Is this art? It's a cucumber. At least, it was supposed to be a cucumber. It's rather like me: large arse, little on top. ;o)

Of course, it grew that way because it was an "extra" cucumber plant. Yes, it's true. I had more plants than I had room for. So I put this one in amongst the blueberries. Ack. Blueberries like acid soil. Cucumbers do not. I put some compost into the hole where I planted it, but plainly the po' thang didn't have enough nitrogen to grow properly.

And so, vegetable art. :) Oh wait, it won't keep, and my stomach doesn't care if it's misshapen. ;o)
With a little hummus dip, yum.
