More Flowers on the Way

 Good morning,

It's lovely to see these daffodils, tulips, and day lilies poking up through the ground.  Years ago, I planted these with a "planned random" (yes, an oxymoron) pattern.  The way it worked was the best part:  there was color for most of the summer.  

When one of the types of flowers began to die back, the next would bloom.  There are even different types of daffodils and tulips that bloom at different times.

My back and knees don't allow me to garden like I used to.  One of the wonderful thing about living in the same house for 47 years is being able to see flowers bloom that I planted 30 or 40 years ago.

Spring is almost officially here!

All the very best,

Lois

Daffodils in the Rain

 Good morning,

Our Daffodils have bowed their head in the (almost) Spring rain.  

It is so wonderful to see beautiful blossoms again!  Each morning I go outside to see what Mother Nature has brought to us to enjoy.

Happy (almost) Spring!  We are enjoying beautiful weather right now, but could still have some very cold weather before Winter is truly gone.

All the very best,

Lois

Happy Sour Dough

 Good morning,

When I took this batch of bread dough out of the oven after the first rise (no heat for first rise, just oven light turned on), and prepared to knead it once again, I noticed he was smiling at me.

Yes, he was quite happy!   

 That batch of sourdough made two gorgeous, delicious loaves of bread!

It is good to have happy sourdough.

Peace Lily

 Good morning,

Our indoor garden is perking up now that the days are getting longer.  Our Peace Lily will soon have a new blossom.

I'm so happy to see the daffodils pushing up through the ground outside, too!

We are having some very warm days, there are insects swarming in the air, and the soil smells of fresh rain.  But, it's still only March so we could have more very cold days.  

I hope the weather is lovely wherever you are.

All the best,

Lois

Norwegian Fried Fish Balls ala Kjell

 Good morning,

This is another yummy Norwegian-style dinner prepared by Kjell.  Those are fried fish balls and boiled potatoes topped with his delicious white sauce.  He used herbs we grew in our living room in our hydroponic garden.  That white sauce is a real winner!

Yum!
