Cairns and Acorns

Yes my kitchen window sill produced two acorns and (of course), multiple cairns as I am quite addicted to popping rocks into my pockets. This gave me a convenient way to meet this week's fun get-pushed challenge from Mary Siegle:
"Your mission Francoise, should you decide to accept it, ...
go to this website -- http://www.litscape.com/word_tools/contains_only.php
put in your username: francoise and specify a range of word lengths from 6 to 8 letters. Choose two of the words it generates and use them to make a photo.
As always, should you or any of your I.M. Force be caught or killed, the Secretary will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This comment will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, Francoise"

Now, I'll probably be fired from the IM Force for revealing secrets. Oh well.
@mcsiegle The most challenging part of this challenge was that my name produced 52 words!!!! It was challenging to pick something. But this particular choice worked well with my current focus on photographing stuff indoors.

Love all that texture. Aren't acorns so cool?

How funny you and @mcsiegle are with this one! Infinitely clever ! Terrific shot too with wonderful close up detail. I think I have that same plant in my kitchen window too!

You've raised an Ebenezer and might even produce and oak or two. Nice shot.

How neat to know there are kindred sprits out there that "see things" and want to "treasure" them...in our window sill or on our desk or even in a box.

How wonderful to see a fellow rock lover! As a kid I didn't really care about naming and classifying them. I just liked pretty rocks. I love the idea of having little cairns on the windowsill. Dispels my preconceived notion that they are always done on a grand scale. Acorns are a natural pair. Bravo! Mission well accomplished.
