Stripes

Posted on the 29 June 2012 by Elizabethwix

It is the time of year when in the early mornings and the late evenings the light comes slant-wise

and casts nice stripey shadows

through the somewhat rickety chairs

and the somewhat less rickety blinds.

On 8th Avenue stripes abound -- here very gay stripes

This picture isn't stripes exactly.....well, stars & stripes. The  local diner window decorated for the season.

I was making a collection of pictures of people wearing stripey clothing, but gave up as there were just too many of them --a positive epidemic of stripes

so here instead is a picture of the cakes the girls were looking at. I never saw anything as wonderful as the Religieuse.


Happy July 4th
