Another one of those plants that suddently appeared in my garden about 5 years ago. I have no idea where it came from and after searching for a name found that it was some sort of allium, like garlic or onion. It does smell a bit in that direction, but not too strong. I am quite pleased to have, especially as it begins to grow regularly some time in March Now it has burst open and showing its many buds of flowers.
Weekend FOTD 12th May 2024: Alium Siculum/Honey Garlic
Let us not get excited. This photo is not the northern lights that everyone seem to have got this week. Apparently the sun had a storm and all sorts of light effects were the result – even the danger of power cuts, although I slept through it all. How was I supposed to know that the light show of the centuary was happening outside my window when I am tucked up in bed and sleeping about 9-10 in the evening. I only heard about it the next morming on the Swiss radio news. I do not even both with television now. Anyhow after digging around in my archives I found something similar. You see it does not have to be midnight, even early in the morning we have our special effects. The sun can wait as far as I am concerned.
RDP Sunday: Aurora
After thinking about it, my peonies at last decided to open up but all together, so I had to pick one out.
Weekend FOTD 11th May 2024: Peony
I rhink this duck was trying a new step. He was hoping to be chosen for a part in Swan Lake.

Two mothers together. On the right my great grandmother and the little girl at the front is my grandmother. The man was my great grandfather. He was known to have said when my grandmother was born, “Thats the last of the bunch”. My grandmother had 11 surviving brothers and she was the last to be born. Of course I never knew her parents, but I remember my grandmother quite well. She lived in the priest’s house at Sissinghurst castle in Sissinghurst, England and met my grandfather whilst he was visiting relatives in Sissinghurst. He was an East End boy from London. I often wonder how my grandmother managed moving to London after living in the countryside.
RDP Saturday: Mother
My moss roses were making quite a show this year, and my rosemary also got into the picture.
FOTD 10th May 2024: Moss Rose
“Do you have to take my photo surrounded by these common chickens?” said the rooster.
FOWC with Fandango: Arrogant
This little flower was growing in my garden: probably classified as a weed, but I found it quite sweet. It seems to be called, amongst many other names, storks bill and I think it is a geranium type.
FOTD 9th May 2024: Storks BillAll those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain!

Retired and Enjoying Every Minute of It
I am Ahmed Abdi, a Wordpress blogger and storyteller who searches for stories that inspire people. I love writing because it’s a reflection of how I perceive the world around me. Lost in a world of endless chaos in my childhood, Unforgettable moments of tragedy and triumphs taught me the art of storytelling where I found myself through letter writing and then turned into stories but then sadly had lost everything I wrote for years. In 2018, I decided to create a Wordpress blog site that would allow me to store and retrieve every piece. Stories from my community, city and people are what make my writing so interesting and inspiring! I’m a tea lover so a cup of tea sometimes makes my blog.
