a must on black - this is actually a little bit special, and not in a crayon eating, window licking, tin foil hat wearing way either.

@kali66 thanks Kali, I've enjoyed going through the back catalogue to see what I can find for this rainbow month. I also like how its shaping up!!

It looks like there are some very interesting things in this shop. I never knew artichokes bloomed! Good shot.

very cool artichokes - @olivetreeann they do flower if you don't catch them in time - the bit you eat is the bud (we had them growing in my parents' garden)

[Sheralee S]

I didn't know they were artichokes either! They are very photogenic things.

@shannejw My mom used to steam them and we'd dip the "petals" in melted butter. Now I'm hungry for them!

[Shanne]

We used to eat them all the time too - and make sure we ate the bit behind the choke at the end @olivetreeann
