rush and his friend ben
We made a deal. I ordered and paid for take out Chinese food (for 4 hungry teenage boys) and they agreed to let me bring out the camera after lunch. My request was 'no smiles'. Then the dog showed up which made it very difficult.

my 'lights around the arbor' project
I spent the better part of the weekend hanging these light around the arbor. One every 22 inches, I got it spaced exactly so. The glow at night is fantastic, my new favorite space to sit and relax.

raspberries, grapes on blue
I put these freshly washed summer fruits on a pretty platter, went outside. Took a photo or two and ate the whole thing before the kids got home. It was wonderful!

zongzi for the duanwu festival
when we left the Indonesian restaurant on Saturday, Fred noticed these string bundled, trianglular shaped treats at the counter. I was too full to think about more food, but he insisted I go back and buy some for still lifes. Just $2. each, I told the girl I wanted three. She explained that these were a special treat for the Duanwu Festival celebration the next day, and that I would really like them. Just heat them in the microwave she told me. I never planned to eat them, but after I did I wished I'd bought more. Now I must wait until next year.
On the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar (June 8th this year) the dragon boat festival commemorates the death of the great poet Qu Yuan, 340 BC). These treats are savory, filled with rice and red bean, pork and mushrooms.
