A key hole, about the diameter of a nickel, on an electronic box that controls the traffic lights.

what's up, buddhi

A small, pocket-sized book of the sayings of Buddha, perched meditatively atop the chain ropes of an outside cafe.

This reminds me of gummy bears.  [Bud > hair > hairy bud > haribo > gummy bears.]

death grip

A tree root that grew itself around the fence it loves.  What does this first one look like?  A turtle biting a worm?  A zombie hand?  What else?

LE PURPLE!

A gift from france from mi amor.  Similar to the lack-of-word-knowledge from the previous post, I'm not really sure how to speak the words of french, so please excuse me.  This is a small box of "chocolat noir noisettes 56%" called "Laduree."

A host of purple daffodils.  I actually have no idea what these things are, other than cute as a button.  (Excuse me while I invoke my inner grandmother....)

Where Is This? #10 bored
