One of my lovely co-workers left this week. We had a picnic lunch for her, so I made this Orange Blossom sponge . As I don't have access to the right blossom, I decorated it with white Violets.

These elegant Fritillaria meleagris are in the Orchard. I love how they look so oriental and aloof. They are native plants, though. And I admit to buying them from the local W.I. market. I am trying to get a colony going in the dampish grass.
