Poppy
The hairy bud opened overnight into this beautiful poppy. This is most likely an Iceland Poppy. More photos are forthcoming.

Young sweet peppers
You see three peppers in this photo. No, actually four, for one is very small and is above the one on teh left, just barely visible.
Unknown flower bud
So what do you thibk of that? It was supposed to be sweet alyssum until I realized that no alyssum ever had a bud like that. It is furry by the way.

beautiful cat
One of two, we call him "the offspring of a squirrel and a cat" for his habit of walking around with his tail bent at an acute angle with his body. He has recently grown quite fat on Pesach leavings, i.e mostly chicken skin.
Pesach break
I read in an article somewhere that one day it will be as easy to post to a blog as e-mailing. I know that that is no excuse for not posting more often, but all the same I feel more inclined to blogging photos with flickr's handy-dandy photo-posting tools. Pesach break has begun, and I am loaded down with work, namely, a research project, studying for my AP US history exam on May 5 (in case you want to wish me luck (he he)), finishing my Hebrew powerpoint, and thinking about what to do the chemistry poster on (as in what aspect of green chemistry to deal with). I have been foolish and studied only minimally for the AP exam so far, because I have counted on studying during the Yom Tov time and Chol Hamoed. Concerning the research project, the question is: How is the dissemination of information through new computer technology changing in the twenty-first century? By the end of the break I must have 255 notecards on two book sources and three articles (minimum). Considering how most of the topic deals with blogging and Google, any book published earlier than 2005 is more or less outdated. Oh well. Concerning gardening: I have fulfilled most of my aims of planting as early as possible to get ahead of the heat (for my tomatoes to have time to flower and set fruit, since that does not occur when daily temperatures are over 90-ish degrees) and to get a head-start on the growing season. Some pictures follow of trellises for the cherry tomatoes.
