The buttercups are growing everywhere here at the moment so it was inevitable that I would end up doing a post about them. I've taken a couple of photos - as if we need to remind ourselves what they look like - but they are so nice and sunny and I would say 'a happy flower' (or is that just me getting poetical again!)
It's a job to see some of these because of the bracken
and in my doodlings I've sketched them
At the top of this sketch I've added:
'When I was young we would put a buttercup under a friends chin to
see if it reflected the colour, if it did it meant they liked butter!'
I wonder if kids still play this game - or has it been lost somewhere along the line

Yes, happy flowers! I never heard of this game, funny!
love your sketch page...we did that butter thing with dandelions, I still do it with my grandkids!!! They all like butter! I always send yellow flowers as I feel they send indoor sunshine!
cheers, dana
We used to do the same thing when we were kids! (I think we're dating ourselves. lol)
