Peace with Pink

Today I woke and made coffee and time for my journal before firing up this electronic oracle and discovering so many responses to yesterday's Win a Whimsy. I made time to chuckle as I delighted in the comments. So, right now, in this moment, I make a gesture of gratitude to you, kind reader, for making the time to play!

I spoke with a friend of mine, a Master Gardener, who is also experiencing below par rhubarb harvests this year, which - for me - means less Rhubarb wine and mead this season. I've typically harvested 60-70 pounds and this year only 10-15 pounds. I managed to make a harvest of another 5 pounds. Slim pickings, but I'm still grateful.


With one of my 5 pound batches, I started of batch of wine. Oh, the drama . . . the drama . . .


Before the early-evening rains of summer tumbled from the sky I made peace with pink.


That's what I made today.
