Isn’t this a great looking award? I received it on her Sunday post from blogger friend and mystery author Elizabeth Spann Craig, author of Pretty Is as Pretty Dies (which I read and loved, partly because of the spunky elder protagonist, Myrtle Clover).

Experimenting with My Camera — Christmas Cactus
I’ve been playing with the digital camera, trying to figure out how to use the flower close-up feature. No, don’t be silly. I haven’t read the instructions yet.
