Happy Spring!!







A day late...

But better late than never...

The Flower Lady (aka Erika)

Brought me this lovely planter...

Chock full of Spring Bulbs...

Miniature Daffodils...

Purpley Blue Hyacinths...

And a lovely Burgundy Primula...

The Bulbs are all at different blooming stages...

Should last a good long time...

Then...

I can plant them in my garden...

To enjoy next year!!

Love the black stones...

And the piece of curly willow...

                           Thanks Erika...♥️♥️♥️

 

 









I have moved it to my foyer table...

Darker there...

And cooler...

Keep the bulbs going longer!!

It will definitely be the anchor for my Easter decor....





As usual I took way too many pics...

Do you have any Spring bulbs indoors at your home???

When we returned from our drive to the cottage yesterday...more on that later...

I could smell the Hyacinths as soon as we walked in the front door...

Lovely....

Hope you are all having a great day...

Yesterday was a glorious sunny warm day here and at the cottage...

Got up to 9*C here!!!

Lots more melting going on...

Today is very blustery...raining overnite...small peeks of sun every now and then...

Gonna curl up on the couch with my latest crochet...quite challenging!!

Think Burgers will be the star tonight...

With either Greek Salad...or sweet potato fries...no decision on that yet!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend...

Happy Spring!!!

                           Cheers!  :o)

The Icebergs Have Floated Away....

     Finally a more Summer-like view....well...except of course for all the raking that still needs to   be done....but...at least the Icebergs have floated away...so much better!!


The new flag is up....Welcome another cottage season!!













It was a glorious Saturday afternoon....North wind, so perfect for a lakeside bonfire...and a few refreshments!
Of course...this was after the big clean-up featured below!
this was my biggest job that I got done...cut 2 of the big Miscanthus...rake all the leaves out...get them down to the bonfire...YAY!!!
Still lots of raking to be done...but...with this warm weather, perhaps a few blooms soon!


     


We also enjoyed another bonfire with our neighbours...

Then retired inside...for a lovely Rib dinner...

And a cosy sit by the fire inside!

I have not mentioned the one problem we have...

The water would not start...seems we have a leaky pipe in the basement...a plumber will be required...
BUT.... we did spend the night...toasty and warm in our bed...
But no water....YET!
Hopefully real soon....... 








And a kooky picture of me and my boyfriend!
DO we look SLEEPY or what???
Well.......WE WERE!!!!

            Hoping you all had a great Easter weekend!

               Always over too darn fast...

                  Time to put the Easter decorations to rest for another year!

                        Enjoy the rest of your day...

                                    Cheers!  :o)
