Vignette for Wednesday

Between a rock and a hard place. The equivalent in Spanish may be more fitting here: entre la espada y la pared [between the sword and the wall]. 

That pretty sedum with pink flowers, surrounded above by stones and spines, is called Sunsparkler® Dazzleberry. (I am not making this up.) I love it.

Thanks to Flutter & Hum for creating and hosting this weekly meme.

      Thanks! And to a fellow bird lover -- I saw SIX hummingbirds at one feeder last night! Quite awesome! Next meme to tackle: Wildlife Wednesday...

    Beautiful! And I love the Spanish saying, too. For some completely unrelated reason, it reminds me of what Gloria (Sofia Vergara) once said on the TV show Modern Family: Voy a ser la brisa en tu espalda, no quién te escupa en la frente.

      Thanks! No language like Spanish for sayings/proverbs etc., as Sancho Panza (and my grandmother) demonstrated back in the day...

    Love the Sedum and the photo--not crazy about the name...
