Patti has asked us to find shapes this week. I’m sticking close to home for mine, as all are taken in our house or yard. I always enjoyed geometry; in fact I enjoyed math, because everything was logical. Just call me Spock. 🙂 I enjoyed math until I got to trigonometry, at which time I realized that unless I went into math, I probably wouldn’t have any use for it, even for figuring out the width of a creek from the shadow of a tree.
We’ll start with an edible shape, one cherry tomato from my patio plant, sharing shapes with part of our patio table (not edible.)

A shapely part of an aloe plant.

Cacti are made for geometry!

Some early morning geometry, courtesy of the sun and blinds.
Although there aren’t innumerable leaves here as there were in the Midwest, we still get some.
Thus endeth today’s geometry lesson. There will be no quiz and it’s pass-fail, so happy weekend!
It’s that table again! 🙂 🙂
It is, Jo. 🙂 Still no water on/in it, though. 🙂
Nice tomato instead 🙂 🙂
True. Just one mouthful but tasty.
Great photos but no fair showing a fresh tomato.
It’s a teeny one, Dan, just a mouthful. I wish I had some enormous heirloom tomatoes to share, but alas, no.
Great shapes 🙂 🙂
Thanks very much, Brian. I’d say our house and yard must be in great shape, but I don’t want to start a linguistic conversation today, not that I don’t enjoy them, but that pesky thing called time. 🙂
Well done, Janet!
Thanks, Sue. I’m happy you liked the photos. 🙂
😊😊😊
The world is full of shapes. Liked that tomato. Just planted tomato seeds in a large pot – climbing cherry tomatoes.
Here I have to have the tomatoes done before it starts getting so hot. Learned my lesson last year and it was quite discouraging.
Lovely images, Janet. I especially love your first 3 shots. The tomato is a great idea. I love how it contrasts with the other shapes on the table. And the cacti are perfect for the challenge, too. Wonderful!! I’m so glad you added some “geometry” from nature.😀
Thanks, Patti. Just thought I’d go with something a bit different today. 😘
I love the cherry tomatoe, beautiful shape! Cacti are made for geometry, perfect. Very clever, Janet!
Hi, Amy. I hope you had a good weekend. I thought the tomato had a pleasing shape and cacti are very geometrical. 🙂 It’s always fun to join, but I don’t always have time on the weekends to do so.
Well Spock, you did a great job on this one! Loved your little tomato and of course your wicked cacti! Never got to trig myself….made me glad I was a language major LOL!
I was a PE major with English lit and sociology minors. Glad you liked the tomato. Have a wonderful week.
I love your cacti. I am an avid gardener and have a large aloe plant, but it’s nowhere near as pretty as yours: it doesn’t have the red points.
I have a regular aloe but found this one at Costco a few months ago. It’s unusual and pretty.

Ha! Outstanding!!
Thanks very much, John. I hope your week’s off to an excellent start.

👍
Aaagh, trigonometry. I think that’s why I failed sixth form maths the first time.
Love the shapes btw; especially the tomato. Time for breakfast I think.
Hope you had good breakfast. 😉
🙂 fresh peach and coffee
Sounds delicious, although I’ll take a mocha rather than coffee alone. I had homemade granola with milk and blueberries.
Great shapes, love the cacti.
Thanks, A-C. They are beautiful and so different.
Besides the fact that the tomato is making me hungry, these are all great shots and examples of at home geometry. Well done!
yjsml upi brtu ,ivj.Trds/ If my fingers were a space off, that would say “Thank you very much, Resa.” But then you probably already knew that, right?
LOL!!
