Mellow Yellow Monday

Every time I look at these tulips in the garden, I think of the old song "When You Wore a Tulip" .


I first learned it in Grade 4 and thought it was kind of a mean song putting down the person who wore a  smaller, less flashy, red rose.


You can just see the wee spider that has come to share the glamour.   I think I'll request this song at our singing group this morning.  Feels right.

For lots more yellow, check out Drowsy Monkey here.

Well, you added a little something extra special to Mellow Yellow Monday with the tiny spider, wonderful shots!! The song sounds familiar, I think I'll Google it to get the words.

I think I would have missed the spider - nice catch.
Lovely tulips!

Your yellow tulips are lovely. We have tried growing tulips but the deer that come around have found them to be absolutely yummy! So we hsve crocus instead. I have heard that they don't have a big taste for daffodils either, so we will try daffodils next year. Have a great week.

Every time I think of Mellow Yellow, I think of the Donovan Song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQz_s8Yw1Us

Lovely photos, I wrote about the solution I have for the church ladies today.
