Sunday Selection :: Decay on a Saturday

Sunday Selection this time around is a Saturday Selection. All of the photos were taken yesterday.

We woke up to frost 2 below zero (Celsius).

Our laundry was beautifully frozen.

The sun was shining, and I washed the windows - and met this invasive ladybird.

  The beautiful monster is not very beautiful any more. The Pirate suggested that I use the withered flowers for dye - I'm going to try.
  And with some care it should bloom again in a year. I can try. The how-to goes like this: Feed and water until it withers, then forget abut it in a cool room until new green growth is seen. Remove old leaves, water and place in your living room and enjoy. I think I can do this.

When shopping I always raid the place where they place all the marked down things with a best before end date of Today. I found some goldenberries. One apple had survived the frost and together with home grown walnuts and a stalk of celery from the fridge it was turned into a golden Waldorf salad (we had no grapes). It was untraditional in as far as as the apple and celery both were grated. It was very tasty.
