In my kitchen: a gift from Evelyn, commemorations the year of Brood X cicadas, which are especially numerous in Fairfax where she lives — what a wonderful dish towel. We really enjoyed our recent visit with Evelyn and her family, celebrating Alice’s graduation. Seeing and hearing the cicadas all around us was especially wonderful. With their red eyes and long wings, they are quite beautiful if you aren’t prejudiced against insects!
Oh a very nice gift.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great reminder of your trip.
ReplyDeleteI´m Australia-proofed, but every"thing" with more than four legs gives me the creeps still!
ReplyDeleteBut I love their sound - the sound of summer.
Great gift you got :-)
Someone was very clever with this design!
ReplyDeleteThe towel looks fun .... but the cicadas in reality sort of creep me out .... luckily I'm not in Virginia anymore so I didn't experience the Brood this time ... but I have in the past! red eyes galore !
