Sunday was slow but uneventful. I spent the day indoors catching up on various chores. Above is a photo of the basket I keep in the one corner of the kitchen counter. The contents are various and change over time depending on the season. There is ginger root (which is sprouting but still okay), some potatoes below them, an Ambrosia apple, a couple of navel oranges, bananas, some whole, unshelled nuts (almonds are my favourite), tea bags plus bread from the local bakery (Cobs). The box in the foreground contains blueberry twist bread. I cut some slices after taking a series of photos of which this is but one and washed that all down with tea. The bottle is empty and just for show (Fischer biere speciale d'Alsace). When I make black tea, sometimes I put in a couple of slices of ginger root for flavouring and add honey (currently I am using wildflower honey) to taste if needed. There are always a few bags of tea handy when heating the water to a boil. The tea displayed is Earl Grey (Stash), one of my favourites. Hopefully your Sunday, and the weekend in general, was a pleasant one!

Hi Volker really like your blog. Keep up the good works. Photo are getting better and better----ross
Ross, the photos will get even better when I start using my new SLR digital camera. Right now it is still too rainy and overcast. This weather makes for lousy photos. One is my assignments this month is to photograph the heron nests at Stanley Park (tennis courts). So look for some interesting posts in the near future. Meantime, some rhododendrons are in flower plus crocuses, snowdrops and heather are in bloom. Despite how things are further east, spring is here!
