rapeseed – WrookieSchU

It’s a little nod to Wayne’s World, but instead of ‘party time, excellent’ (if you are aware of the cult nineties classic) I will be diving into one WORD each day. It could be something I learned, something bizarre that happened, a favourite word that I have rediscovered or just a thought that won’t leave me alone.

Today’s word is PLETHORA.

At its simplest, plethora means “an abundance” or “an excess.” If you have a plethora of biscuits in the tin, it’s more than just enough, it’s overflowing. This fantastically regal word came to my mind this morning when I was looking through my flowers collection and realised I had a plethora of flowers to showcase for my future FOTD posts.

The countryside stretched endlessly, a plethora of rapeseed.

Happy Friday everyone! Today’s flower of the day is the yellow rapeseed flower. We spotted these rapeseed fields on the way home from Athlone, Ireland when driving back up to the north. Furthermore, I have recently discovered many of these fields here in Northern Ireland also, having become very popular crops to be grown here. Many farmers are turning to these crops for their economic value as they have become increasingly popular for their producing of rape seed oil used in cooking.

I couldn’t believe we were seeing these fields. They are really stunning, the bright yellow can’t help but make you smile and brighten up your day. It was interesting to discover how common these have become here in Ireland.

Have a lovely weekend everyone!
