"O tempo não passa. O tempo não pára. Por ansiedade ,colocamos nosso foco no futuro e perdemos a dor e a delícia de cada dia. E dentro dessa dor e dessa delícia está o prazer das pequenas coisas."
Despite the fact that by the Chinese calendar, 2010 is the Year of the Tiger or Geng Yin, for me, it is the Year of the Snake.
I have more than my share of run ins with snakes this year in my garden. I think the worst was when I stepped into a nest of young snakes and all six wrapped themselves around my right ankle and were moving, squirming, writhing, and trying to get up my leg.
Okay, it is time to change the subject…. getting chills and goose bumps.
These two snakes are handmade Christmas ornaments which are hung on the tree by their curved necks.
For my Flickr groups…

It is an attractive 5mm long metallic green beetle with purple stripes on its wing cases and thorax. The beetle devours the leaves of rosemary, lavender, thyme, sage and some other related plants. The beetle is a native of southern Europe that has become an established pest in Britain since the 1990s.

My macro or close up photograph of a small delicate mint flower showing lots of stamens and pistils before a soft pink bokeh, with water droplets sitting amongst the stamen.
Apparently, all flowers of the mint family are edible and have a pleasant taste.

[From Wikipedia]
Mentha (also known as mint, from Greek míntha, is a genus of plants in the family Lamiaceae (mint family). The species are not clearly distinct, and estimates of their number vary from 13 to 18.
Hybridization between some of the species occurs naturally. Many other hybrids, as well as numerous cultivars, are known.
The genus has a subcosmopolitan distribution across Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia, and North America.
Mints are aromatic, almost exclusively perennial, rarely annual, herbs. They have wide-spreading underground and overground stolons and erect, square, branched stems. The leaves are arranged in opposite pairs, from oblong to lanceolate, often downy, and with a serrated margin. Leaf colors range from dark green and gray-green to purple, blue, and sometimes pale yellow. The flowers are white to purple and produced in false whorls called verticillasters. The corolla is two-lipped with four subequal lobes, the upper lobe usually the largest. The fruit is a nutlet, containing one to four seeds.
While the species that make up the Mentha genus are widely distributed and can be found in many environments, most grow best in wet environments and moist soils. Mints will grow 10 – 120 cm tall and can spread over an indeterminate area. Due to their tendency to spread unchecked, some mints are considered invasive.
