This is my own version of a weekly book haul and all things new on fuonlyknew.

I’m also linking up with The Sunday Post hosted by Kimberly @Caffeinated Book Reviewer.

Sunday Post

Some chit chat.

I know I’ve mentioned how routine and calm the last few backs have been. That changed this week. You may have noticed I’ve not been visiting as much. I got pink eye! If you’ve ever had it, you know how it goes. I couldn’t look at anything for long. The computer was the worst. I wore sunglasses and only stayed on for short periods of time. Light was agony to my tender red eyes. That blogging ahead sure came in handy! I’m on the mend now and can actually open my eyes and did get some reading in finally. A couple more days and I’ll be good as new and back to visiting all of you.

Last week I shared this picture of one of my segas starting to bud.

Here it is now. You can see that they are starting to open.

And the banana trees are thriving! Here’s the picture from last week.

And one week later. That long stalk in the middle is actually almost five feet tall and will open into a huge leaf.

I still haven’t got by my local nursery to find out what this one is. It’s so intriguing and lovely. Remember this picture from last week? Just one flower starting to bloom and lots of stalks.

I can’t believe how fast these grow. I went from one to this many in a week!

You can see the tall stalks peeking up all around the blooms. Those are the corn stalk like leaves that will grow really tall.

I mentioned before about these reminding me of pink pineapples. If you look closely below the top bloom, you’ll see these green and yellow rings below it. Those will eventually turn into more pink blooms, stacking on top of each other.

That’s all folks.

Have a fabulous  Sunday!
