A Few More In The Garden.....
I always am amazed that this Hosta comes up every year, in an old tin picnic basket!!
I see you Mr Frog!
I always make a weekend bouquet for the kitchen porch...
Also for the sunporch, but not yet this year...too chilly out there!!
Whatever is in bloom...goes into the vase!
Daffodils...Tulips...Forsythia...Lunaria...Ferns...Love this!
Purchased this wooden rocking chair planter over the Winter...
Plunked one of the Nursery plants in...
So cute!! But, I will switch it out...
Probably for some Basil!!
A few nice juicy Lilies have transplanted themselves here!!
******************
Hope you are all having a great day!!
Lovely and sunny here...breezy...a wee bit chilly...BUT...sunny♥️
A good evening for a nice comforting meal...
Grilled Pork Tenderloin...
Crispy roasted Yams and young carrots...and awesome asparagus!!
Lots of veggies...trying to shed a few lbs before our trip!
Oh...I haven't told you about that, have I?
I am also busy working on some crochet for someone very special!
I will reveal all shortly!!
Enjoy the rest of your day!!
Cheers! :o)

Love that rocking chair planter. So cute. A trip....how exciting. We've had a really great day....even with the battle with traffic. Chicken breasts, red potatoes and broccoli....pretty basic...but a good easy dinner.
ReplyDeleteLove basic simple meals Wanda....yummy!
DeleteBeautiful photos and you are most talented with your bouquet making . . :)
ReplyDeleteNice planter . . . :)
Have a lovely evening . . . :)
My leg is almost healed which is nothing short of miraculous . . . the consultant at the hospital was gob smacked . . .
I feel so much better, Linda . . . :)
Hi Eddie....
DeleteThumbs up on the leg! Great news!
Enjoy your evening!
We grow so many of the same things..close together..is that Geranium's Blue beside the PB hosta?
ReplyDeleteI have clematis growing out of chairs..
We have a mini get away in the plans..very mini..
So windy and chilly today I added socks to my flip flops..very chic.
Tagliatelle with sauce and meatballs...
Those are what I call Woodland Geraniums, Monique...
DeleteThey have a pretty pink flower....very similar to the Cranesbill Blue!
Oh...I want to see that Clematis! Hahaha!
Our trip is 5 days....business/pleasure...I get to roam during the day!
Chilly here too....very attractive with the socks!
Love pasta! Enjoy!
Freezing cold here...the furnace kicked on and I'm back in my long sleeves, jeans, socks and slippers!
ReplyDeleteComfort food for dinner...homemade pot pie, mash and peas. Very grey here.
A little trip sounds fun! Something tells me it's in the USA. Am I right? :)
Spent some time in the backyard watering....sunny but cool!
DeleteDinner sounds soooo wonderful....good job!
Nope.....right here in good old Canada!
I will reveal soon!
Sounds wonderful...you'll get to shop and eat out. yay!
DeleteThus trying to lose a few lbs now!
DeleteWhat a pretty bouquet, Linda. I'm seeing many on blogs and they are all so different and sweet. If you haven't dropped over to Madelief, please do. You will love her blog. The mouse-house smells of lilacs, purple and white. All growing on our property. :) It was dinner out for us tonight. Cooler weather here, too, but I don't mind as long as the sun shines. Deb
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb...I will check her out! So many blogs....so little time!
DeleteYou must be so happy out there on your piece of paradise....so happy for you, Deb!
I don't mind either....as long as it is sunny♥️
Enjoy your evening!
Ah, a trip - looking forward to hearing about that, Linda. I'm still in Canada, and had a great time by the lake. Now I understand lake-living's appeal for you :) The gardens go at a fantastic rate in Spring - I've never seen anything like it. It takes me a year for a fern to grow as fast as it does here in a week! Eating Victoria sponge here this week - well, why not? Cheers, xx
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you are enjoying this beautiful country Patricia....
DeleteVictoria Sponge? No idea.....
Lake living is THE best....
All so pretty ! Supper sounds YUMMY ! yes it is rather chilly for this time of year but at least it has been sunny ! Thanks for sharing , Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteHi Elaine.....
DeleteHope the weekend is warm....
Your lilacs are beeeeeutiful!
Ahhhh, someone special. You have so many someone specials in your life that I don't know which one it's for. And how are you this fine, fine day?
ReplyDeleteYes....someone special!
DeleteCould be you....could be Eddie.....could be Martha.....
You will have to wait and see....
And...by the way...I am just fine, this fine fine day! Thanks for asking!
Hahaha, you are funny girl.
DeleteHey, almost the weekend here. And as soon as Frankenberry gets home, we begin our
9 day staycation. Hot dog.
Cheers and boogie boogie.
absolutely!!
DeleteA trip? Come on...spill the beans!
ReplyDeleteJane x
Not yet young lady....be patient!
DeleteI love the hosta---I have to try one in a container- I have them everywhere. And the chair is precious.
ReplyDeleteDinner sounds lovely as usual. Cold and gloomy here so I made a creamy chicken and veggie casserole tonight. Not sure if it's suitable for the blog as it's really filling comfort food.
A trip? I'm curious AND envious!!! :)

THey overwinter in containers, Jane...and I think they look awesome in containers!
DeleteI love all the different sorts of containers that you plant into, your garden is a real treasure trove of found objects made into planters. Makes it truly unique and just you which I things is wonderful!!!! Dinner sounds delicious! Must eat more asparagus!! xx
ReplyDeleteHi Amy...
DeleteI need to get some annuals done at the cottage...slow start this year!
Asparagus was cheap this week!! hahaha!
That's a cute little rocking chair planter, looks lovely with the plant in it. Hostas are so resilient. My neighbour is giving me some from her garden on the weekend .... do I need any more? probably not but I'll find spaces to squeeze them in.
ReplyDeleteNEVER too many Hostas!
DeleteI love flowers and appreciate your photos of the beauties you have! Tenderloin sounds nice but I have some nice chops thawing. Ooh, a trip? Waiting for that! Have a great evening, Linda, (smile).
ReplyDeleteHi Dixie...yes a trip!! With boyfriend...business and pleasure...enjoy your day!!
DeleteI know where the trip is, but I won't spill the beans!
ReplyDeleteLove all your fun containers - that tin basket is cool and the chair planter is so sweet. I like that nature chooses her own bouquet for your table.
You are crocheting something for someone special? Awww... you shouldn't have! ;-)
Your dinner sounds delicious. Have no idea what mine will be as I am going to Hugh's Room tonight for dinner and jazz. Two dear friends of mine are performing. Looking forward to it.
Oh Suzanne...you are so cute!!
DeleteWe must get together...soon!
Will be in touch!
Dinner and Jazz...la tee dah!!
