Decaying Beauty


Can you guess what is in the bucket? Answer is below at the end...

and while you are answering questions... can anyone tell me why my husband would hang the LAST roll of TP in his bathroom and not tell me? He has his and I have mine.. I only visit his bathroom once a week to clean it...

Do NOT say, at least he hangs it...


This piece of art is a frond that fell off the staghorn fern and I found it just like it is.



Answer to what is in the bucket... a banana tree, waiting to be put in the ground.

Signing off with yet another Decayed Beauty... Brahahaha.

Took these to email my new blouse to my friends Madeline, Carole and Catherine.... my first ever in this color...

The color suits you and looks like springtime.

What a pretty, spring color your blouse is. We always teased my mom because she would buy up toilet paper like crazy so we would not run out! I love the banana tree.

I love the color of your blouse! As for the TP, my philosophy is "too bad" but don't call me!!

Best,
Bonnie

Marie said...

That color is very popular for Spring. I wear that color.

Very becoming on you Sanadra.

I dislike Bananas to eat.

Takes me for ever. I do not like bananas but I do have to eat them for protein. And they are not acid.

My hubby is the grocery stock guy while in the store putting in the cart.

When we go to my daughters we go to her Costco and stock up on T.P and paper rolls.

Ha, ha, ha...your not decayed, your beautiful! Cute top. That wasn't very nice of your husband. Mine likes to put things away in the fridge with basically nothing left in the bowl because he doesn't want to clean it!

Glad I'm not the only one that likes dead stuff, I hate throwing the flowers away as I can still see beauty in them when they are dead.
As for the top, the colour really suits you well, but I know what you mean, we all tend to stick to the same colours, I know I do.

Love your blouse Sandra. The color becomes you.
As for decaying...naw....not you!
You have too much spunk to call yourself decaying.
How fun to have another banana tree to plant in your garden.
Guess what?
We actually have rain this morning. I really hope it soaks deep into the ground.
Weather guy says that there should be 5 inches of snow in the mountains. Every bit helps the drought. 5 inches is no where enough to make much of a difference but we will take all we can get. PTL!

Re: the toilet paper...that's something my hubby would do! I love the color of your blouse. It's a popular color this spring. I bought one very similar in color and love it. BTW, I know how old you are and you're looking good! Being young at heart is the main thing and you are definitely that!

EG CameraGirl said...

You look pretty in that colour, Sandra! I think it would be heavenly to have a banana tree in my yard!

Val said...

Pretty blouse!!! love your eye for the unusual :)

DeniseinVA said...

You look very pretty in your pink blouse Sandra. That is a lovely color on you. I like your staghorn photos and as for the TP, well, that's a man for you, hahahahaha! No disrespect meant to all our male blogging friends as I am sure they have their own stories ;) We just need to ask Gregg :)))

DawnTreader said...

Looks good on you! (or you in it!) I just recently bought a t-shirt in that colour... also my first, I think.

Kathy said...

I love that color! It's one of my favorites.

Ann Thompson said...

That color looks good one you. I have the same TP issue at my house. Apparently I am in charge of toilet paper inventory

Chatty Crone said...

I totally understand the toilet paper thing!!!!!!!!!!!! And I love that color on you.

Ruth Hiebert said...

That color looks really good on you.

Debra Dickinson said...

That color is perfect for vibrant, not even close to decay, you. Beautiful! I did not guess banana tree. At least your hubby did not run completely out in his and then get YOUR last roll without telling you. And yes, I speak from unfortunate experience.

Linda said...

HEY!!!! I have a camera just like yours!!! The camera may be the same but the pictures sure do come out different!!! I love seeing pictures of you and I LOVE that color on you!

diane b said...

Sorry that I haven't visited for ages .I had a little break while other things got in the way. Did you know that a Banana tree is really a type of grass??? Men and TP!! At least you don't have to put up with arguments about which way the roll should be in other words in which way the paper hangs. I like it hanging at the back he likes it over the front. Hee hee stupidity . Love the colour of your blouse.

Deb said...

I love that color on you! My Hubby always waits until he is completely out if something to tell me...ugh

Just Mags said...

I had no idea what was in the bucket. Very nice pictures and you are looking good sweet Sandra.nLove your blouse. I really like square necks and have a really hard time finding them. Hugs

barbara l. hale said...

It would be fun to have staghorn ferns in the yard. I'm jealous. AND a banana tree. I love the color of your new blouse. Nice set of selfies!

Rose said...

I LOVE the color of your blouse!!!

Decaying beauty--how you jest! You look radiant in that color; it's a lovely blouse.

Wsprsweetly Of Cottages said...

Sandra, this color is wonderful on you. Not to mention how cute that blouse is. So....I was wondering..can ..I ..have it? LOL

Ida said...

Now I understand why it's called a "Stag Horn" fern.
Banana plant...that's pretty cool too and I love your "selfies."
As to the TP issue....that happens at our house a lot too.
