i almost bought a big pot of rosemary on my walk today. almost, not quite. but since i had just started my walk it would've been foolish to buy it and carry it around. then when i was about to go home, i remembered that the prompt for today had something about remembrance and it just so happened that there was a small grocery by the subway station and they had a thing of rosemary in the veggie section. so i grabbed that which was a lot cheaper than if i had bought the pot of rosemary. i just may have to buy it one of these days just so i would have some plants around the apartment. i do miss having plants and getting flowers is just not the same. when i first came to canada thirty-two years ago, i had an apartment that faced east with tall and wide windows and a small balcony. i used to grow my rosemary, basil, mint and tarragon from seedlings or mere cuttings. nowadays i just don't have the inclination.
remembrance day is celebrated in some provinces of canada but not here in ontario. i think there is a movement that calls for the government to make remembrance day a national holiday. we do observe armistice day on november 11 which honours our veterans and it is a bank holiday but not a statutory holiday.
today's word prompt: memorial day (americans) and remembrance day (ANZAC).
Beautiful shot, planted my pot of it in the garden too, and it expanded but in width not in night, like Diana’s. For it to grow so high, you need a warmer climate, I think
