Beautiful Frozen Soap Bubbles

I didn't know frozen soap bubbles was a thing until I saw photos on Pixabay. I was immediately drawn to them. They are like little pieces of art.

Have you ever done this yourself, those of you who live in snow country? 

 Here is a link to one of the best videos I watched. As a bonus, it has the nicest sound track as well. The photo below is just one of several I collected, but isn't it beautiful?!?

 If you want to try doing this even in the heat of summer, you can blow bubbles onto a plate that then goes into the freezer. Check out the instructions here. I think the next time DH and I babysit the grandkids, we may give this a shot. 









I hope you enjoyed today's blog!
Have a wonderful day and the best week ever!
Hugs,

Tuscany

Did you ever see the movie, A Room with a View ? It's one of my favorites and stars Daniel Day-Lewis, Judi Dench, Helena Bonham-Carter and Maggie Smith among others. If you haven't seen it, I recommend it highly. It's a wonderful period piece and Daniel Day-Lewis's performance alone is worth a gander. But as the story opens, we're in Florence in Tuscany. We even get to see some of the city's beauties as well as the countryside. For those of you familiar with the film, here's a video featuring the kiss in the poppy field.  I've traveled in Europe, but not in Italy. I hope one day to make the journey, though I confess I don't travel easily. Long distances on a plane drive me to distraction. And it's not like the pilot can pull-over so I can stretch my legs, lol. But Italy is one of those places that should be on everyone's bucket-list. Tuscany in particular has a long history including the Etruscans who built one of the first civiliza...

Pink Hydrangeas

Image
"You are the beat of my heart..." Supposedly, these words were used to describe the pink hydrangea by a celebrated Asian florist, Tan Yun Yong. The full quote is more elaborate: "The light delicate blush of the petals reminds me of a beating heart, while the size could only match the heart of the sender!" ( Source )  I have a fondness for hydrangeas though I've never grown them. I have a painting in my home that features hydrangeas as well as a print. For today's post, I collected a bunch of photos featured below. But I've included my personal favorite here. I love how lush yet how delicate these flowers are. They are almost too much. The Victorians must have thought so as well because one of the meanings they assigned to hydrangeas was 'boastful'. To read more about how to choose, grow and care for hydrangeas, check out this blog  on Plant Care Today! FunFacts about Hydrangeas ( Source ) The hydrangea plant and flower is also commo...

Bruges Belgium

Bruges Belgium ***Note: This blog first appeared on my Caris Roane blog in August, 2017 Here is one of the prettiest medieval cities in Europe. The word Bruges means 'bridges' which is a sensible name for a city with over eighty bridges crossing dozens of canals. I couldn’t resist doing a brief look at Bruges because of my general fascination with canals and living near all that water. Yes, I do think my interest is partly because I live in the desert. Water anywhere becomes intriguing, lol! Bruges Belgium Funfacts ( Source ) ( Source ) : ·          Bruges is one of the most-visited medieval cities in the world. ·          Belgium is a Western European country of 11,787 square miles and is bordered by France, the Netherlands, the North Sea, Germany and Luxembourg.
