Thank you so much Dear Melinda; I am happy you enjoyed my walk. It was my lucky day with those Monarchs; I was surprised myself! And I am glad I am not the only one who has the same experience with the Touch-me-not, lol. They do look like tiny orchids in reality, but very difficult to capture that.
Oh, yes I did came a cross the beauty berries online, but I am really not sure if that's what I found. Oh well, it is a mystery for now, lol.
Oh my gosh blinchiki with elderberry jam ??? That sounds scrumptious!!!
