What is that top shot? Reflection, mural, mirage? Magic, for sure. There’s so much gorgeous sunshine and blue sky in your pictures today.

The bakery offerings are only made resistible by the continent’s width between us. I wish I could put on my 7-league boots and hop across. The intricate geometric precision of the Romanesco broccoli inspires awe, but I like to imagine it on my plate, too.

That was a perfect bedtime story, Peggy. Thanks again. Good night!
