I was to Kraków last week. A wonder of a small door; glass catalogue at the wonderful stained glass museum; a baked cheesecake at the wonderful Manggha Museum cafe - we went back for lunch after seeing the exhibitions.

I can’t work out whether the brick pillar is supporting the twisted trunk, or the twisted trunk is holding up the pillar. Either way, it’s a fine sight. #BecauseOfClem #ThreadOfGold💛

Spring is so full of small beauties that it’s one great enveloping beauty—but here for #SmallBeautiesHour, a few tiny highlights from this morning: the first trillium in the woods, wild (chaparral) currant, & a moth or butterfly mirroring the white milkmaids by the trail.
