cone, community, and blooming
posted by soe 1:05 am

Three beautiful things from my past week:

1. I got the chance to try the recent ice cream addition to the Mount Pleasant neighborhood, Mount Desert Island Ice Cream. I opted for a cone of Cranberry Bar Bliss, modeled after the Starbucks holiday dessert. The creamsicle-flavored base was studded with white chocolate chips and candied cranberries and ginger. It was delicious.

'Community'

2. On of my favorite things about walking around D.C. is getting to see all the brightly-hued murals tucked away into corners of the city, like this one, Anne Marchand’s “Community,” on a wall overlooking a park/playground in Shaw.

Winter Blooms

3. All sorts of flowering shrubs and bushes are blooming right now, including rhododendron and roses.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world lately?

I love that mural! Pittsburgh has a few fabulous murals tucked away in unexpected places! They are such a treat for the eye!

@Kat: I bet it’s true of a lot of cities, but it definitely rocks when you stumble across one you hadn’t seen before.
