    I just love seeing your photos everyday! I am glad though that it's not a giant nightmare-inducing bug today.

    That's pretty keen! Now if it only came in scratch and sniff.

    Just to add that the Da-da stuff is maddening, though allegedly it's easier for them to say (small comfort when I spend a good portion of the day pointing to self intoning ma-ma ma-ma MA-MA)

    flowers, babies, puppies...if it weren't for all the poop talk (and god, how i love the poop talk) i'd almost expect a dancing hamster next.

    WOW! I am jealous. Ours only bloom in spring! And they smell soooo good.

    Oh - and I haven't been able to get George Bush pantless out of my head. Thanks for the nightmare! ;)

    The green leaves in the front are distracting. It looks like you had focus set to closest. I wish you'd have pulled them off or shot around them. Pretty flowers though.

  • Em said:

    I am purple with envy! Do you also get lilacs in the spring there? I may need to move...

    10.21.04 - 05:02 AM / 18
  • Sue said:

    MMMM, I can almost smell them.....yummy picture :) Probably the single most wonderful scent in the world...next to a baby, that is...

  • Shiz said:

    Terrific photograph.

    And I agree about the pants hitting the shoes. You can tell so much from a well-dressed man.

    Lastly, ANTM? LOVE it.

    elizabeth, i took this photo two days ago. in the fall.

    Beeeaautiful!
    Bush with his pants down makes me laugh. Bush getting caught saying he didn't say something...funny...but - Clinton saying "I did have a relationship with Ms. Lewinski" and then the replays of "I did not have sexual relations with that woman - Ms. Lewinski" over and over and over.
    HI-larious!

  • Elizabeth said:

    Umm... why do people think this image is from Fall? This is from Spring or Summer. I know... I LIVE in Utah! It's raining buckets here right now and all the leaves are falling off the trees!! My family even owns lilacs... and they do not... I repeat... they do not bloom in Fall here in Utah. Hahaha ^_^

    Lilac is one of my favorite colors. Your picture made me smile as did the "da da" comments... :)

    10.21.04 - 05:38 AM / 25
  • Antonia said:

    I think the Da-da bit must be because she's a girl, and girls love their daddies like that. My son will say nothing but Ma-ma, all day long.

  • Ty said:

    Elizabeth, her title says Autumn. I think that's why people think they are from fall...perhaps it's just a confused plant. Either way it's pretty!

    A politely, quiet begging for FOUR HOURS dog is wonderful! What you didn't want was the "snatch the food out of your hand" or "drool on the person with good food" begging dog that my neighbor has. Chuck is such a good dog!

    Enjoy your blooms Dooce - there is friggin two feet of snow here in Athabasca, Alberta Canada. Brrr...

    Trees often get "confused" in the fall and put out a few blooms. We've got pear and apple trees blooming up in the orchard where I work & forsythia does quite a lot of blooming in the fall. All of those species are best known as spring bloomers... kinda like this here lilac. I think it's hormonal. Really.

    Nice picture.
