pecans




this week, while it was still rainy and cold, we did manage to go out now and then. one of those times we went hunting for pecans. not much hunting needed, though, as the storm had brought them to the ground, where we just needed to pick them up.

it was a cold and dark afternoon, not much light to take photos. i was expecting rather grainy photos, and they are. but i really like this peculiar light and texture.

so, did i tell you that we were expecting a heat wave after the awful weather? we did. and it arrived! 25 degrees celcius, sun and flip flops on again. which means that the double up 4 years birthday celebration we canceled last weekend due to the rain and the thunderstorm, will in fact happen this weekend. which also means i have a ton of stuff to do. alas, i am off.

happy weekend to you all, may you find something worth celebrating this weekend as well, big or small.
