Diptych Day….Green

Happy St. Paddy’s Day to ya!!  And to think our photography word was Green this week. 
Ahh….good ‘ole synchronicity.

I really hadn’t a clue what I was going to photograph that represented Green.  I would’ve liked to have photographed some GREEN GRASS, but the grass is still pretty splotchy brown in spots around here.  And yes, quite ugly still!  Recently my daughter needed some beanie babies for a school project.  So off she went to find them....they had been condemned to the basement.  She dragged all three bags up 2 flights of stairs just to find the beanies she needed.  10 days later the bags were still sitting in the upstairs hallway.  So before putting them back in their dungeon, I thought I’d look through the bags for a green beanie or two.  As you can see I got lucky, I scored 7!  What a craze this was!  Early on, I used to snip those little red ty hearts off of the beanies…until I was scolded for such behavior.  Because after all these are going to be worth some real money some day!  Really!!  R…i….g….h…t……!   I believe I did make a promise that I wouldn’t give them away……but still if everyone’s saving them, then who’s buying them?

Chel @ Wild & Precious Life took the pretty floral picture above.  Now she wouldn’t have any trouble spotting green grass where she lives!
