Today is the day to plant potatoes. That is what my great grandfather would say, if he were here. Today, I will be outside grooming flower gardens. I love to pull weeds.
When I was a child, if ever I were silly enough to tell my mom that I was bored, that would be what she would send me back outside to do. You would think I would hate pulling weeds because of that, but no, I truly enjoy the task. Detailing the edges of the beds with a shovel is another task I enjoy.
Soon it will be time to plant some seeds of giant Sunflowers. I have to keep the birds around. They entertain us all winter long, and I do mean LONG. Two years in a row we have had the worst time of it.

Yesterday was the school easter egg hunt and parties. I have been very busy with the children lately. No time to blog.
I received the most wonderful gift from the Netherlands. My friend Patricia, of Potje Thee is so creative and has a style that is so colorful and original. She makes the most delightful fiber items that always make me smile.
