- At the plant center at Ace Hardware, this beautiful yellow hibiscus. I couldn't decide which photograph I liked best, so here's another.
- And now they've thought of everything - scented M&Ms candles. The yellow M&M looks a tad dismayed - maybe because he's atop a candle.
Day 25 of the Blogging from A to Z Challenge featuring the letter "Y". We take Sundays off during the challenge, so I'll see you all on Monday, where we will wind this thing up!

You're almost there! I am so impressed. Love the hibiscus pics...I did not know there was yellow.
*Love flower photos and yours are especially gorgeous! Great 'Y' posts
I've never heard of Yoo-Hoo.
The candles crack me up. Have a lovely weekend Lynn!
I use t buy a friend's family Yoo-Hoos every year for Xmas- miss those folks now Living in New Hampshire- Tasty but full of High Fructose Corn Syrup which I try to not eat anymore. Not as much fat as a milkdshake tho!
What a cool flower- n I think you need both pics to show the shape-
M&Ms melt in your mouth n over the candle too! Candles- what a silly idea!
I love Yoo-hoo! I used to love Chocolate Soldier too but you can't find that anymore.
Did you take home a Yellow Hibiscus plant or just photograph it?
I am more dismayed than the yellow M&M. It amazes me how many products we buy that are simply advertising for some company. How did they get us to start paying to advertise for them? Smart folks I guess.
Riot Kitty -
Thank you. I have today and Sunday to think of Z things. :)
Yes - I thought that yellow Hibiscus was gorgeous.
Dawn -
Thank you - I like to use that macro setting on my camera for that.
Joe -
That might be a southern thing, I don't know.
You have a great weekend, too!
Snaggle -
True - not as much fat as a milkshake.
I know - the candles were necessarily a good thing - just a silly thing. :)
Granny Annie -
I had forgotten about Chocolate Soldiers! We used to get them at church camp.
I was feeling a bit desperate for Y things and was delighted to find that Yellow flower. The visit to the plant nursery was to buy a few geraniums.
That's kind of what I meant by "now they've thought of everything." I mean - I can see products like M&M dispensers, that kind of thing, but that was a stretch, putting one on top of a lemon scented candle. But I needed a third Y thing and that just had to be it. :)
oops! sorry...i mean, the comment about the hibiscus flower should be written here.
i've never heard of yoo-hoo either.
big hugs!
I've heard of Yoo-hoo but have never tried it.
Love the yellow M&M. I have a friend who collects them. He would love that candle!
Have a nice weekend!
Love that hibiscua. Yellow is such a wonderful colour in flowers. Thanks.
M & M's take over the world. :)
hibiscus are so lovely. Actually Blue Bunny's favorite flower.He's out at the hardward now, actually. getting a fitting for the outdoor faucet.
Not sure if I've ever had a YooHoo tho seen them around for years. I remember Bette Middler served them to her interviewing guest in some movie or another. "Down & Out In Beverly Hills" maybe, but don't quote me on that.

hardware, not hardward.
And I should add Better Middler's character in the movie.

How creative of you to think of things associated with "Y." The hibiscus are pretty and yellow is my favorite color :)
I would love to come back to your site and read new entries in your lovely blog. Would you care to link exchange? Take care, Farida :)
Betty -
I suspect Yoo-Hoo is a southern thing. :)
Hugs to you!
Dana -
I included those candles because they made me laugh because of their silliness. :) And also because one of them would be a good Y thing.
Karen -
We all did things like that earlier in life, I think.
The Elephant's Child -
Thank you - I liked them, too.
Jannie -
No need to correct - I knew what you meant. :) And I like the idea of Blue Bunny at the hardware.
xo
Farida -
I love sunflowers, too. Thanks for stopping by!
