Blue Monday, June 14, 2010


Posted by Picasa
Due to travels and busyness, I am late with my Blue Monday submission. I hope you like the flowers. If you look closely enough you can see a bumble bee.  Gotta love them too since they make the wonderful honey.

Glorious blue blossoms.... I am not familiar with that plant. Yes, I see the bee.
Glad you are home now.
Blessings - Jan

Ooo, you are way too late; I'm so sorry. Blue Monday is on each Monday, beginning at midnight EST. It closes after 11 PM. I do hope you try again--maybe next Monday. : -)

Love love it but please excuse my ignorance...what flowers are they ? at first i thought it was lavender but now i can see it's not..
This is a wonderful blue wednesday, dear Joyful! :-)

Hi Jan, thank you for dropping by. It is good to be back home for a little while. I am not 100% sure about the plant either but I believe it is called Veronica or Speedwell..

Smiling Sally, on my, yours is the only meme I participate in that cuts off submissions so early. Why is that ?

Bossy Betty, thank you for dropping in. Glad you liked the blue plant.

Lala, don't worry that you don't know the name of the plant. I've seen it quite a lot myself and still don't know the proper name. I looked up some photos on the internet and I believe it is a Veronica or Speedwell. It does look a lot like a lavender plant but doesn't have that wonderful lavender smell. If you google Veronica or Speedwell, you will see that this plant has been used for medicinal purposes.

I see the bee! I'm so glad you saved your post to share with Blue Monday folks.

To answer your question, I shut the meme down when it's no longer Monday. Twenty-three hours of computer work is enough for me! LOL
