The amaryllis are blooming. These are so fun. All from one bulb I picked out of someone’s composting.

It was too cold to work in the yard (what’s up with 40*F in TX in April?) so I decided to do a little cooking to get ahead for the week.
We saw a new sloppy Joe sauce that promised what I remember from school lunches. We’ll see. I haven’t made sloppy Joe since our daughter was still living here

Mr Lincoln rose. I’ve had this bush more than 20 years and have nearly killed it twice and still it blooms.

First poppy. I bought these on half price last week. They looked so sad but had lots of unopened blooms. Brought them home and perked them up and one has started to bloom.

This pink witch hazel must be one of the first things I put in the garden. It’s been moved several times and has found a new happy place.

Found this little guy while cleaning up plants yesterday. Gave him a ride to a nice plant. He must have liked it because he wouldn’t move and I finally had to push him a little

I don’t usually buy pink orchids. I prefer green backgrounds or white with a brown center. But this one was on sale and it was so pretty I had to have it.

Flowers. Finally. My forsythia had a rough year last year. I grow it in a pot here or it gets out of control. Last year, it split its pot and I didn’t notice. It almost died from lack of water. Not a lot of bloom this year.

These white iris are our harbinger of spring. They’re the first flowers to bloom every year.
This one is in the neighbors yard. She shared some with me several years ago but mine haven’t bloomed yet.

There was a new brand at the grocery and I might have gotten sucked in by the cute display. ‘I want to try them all!’
I hope they’re good.

Just did a wander through my local Joann’s to say goodbye I guess. Wasn’t much left but I found a few things.

We don’t eat fancy, but we eat good. Tonight’s dinner was a fired chicken splurge with mash and gravy. Bad for the heart, but good for the soul.

Dottie: you don’t understand maths. You gave me one but then you gave her one so she’s had more than me. Now give me another one. No, you gave her one too. Now you have to give me another one to make us equal. Keep up!

Whoa, when did this happen. Today’s low was supposed to be 47 and the high was in the 70s. That changed quickly
