Things I hate to see

Stormy Weather…the ‘not so good’ kind.

These were taken a few minutes ago from my front porch. I thought I’d post them real quick… just in case we blew away and landed in Indiana.

Blooms and Chickens

This morning I was out in the barn feeding the fat little horses, chickens and goats when I heard a car door slam and saw my friend Nancy pulling out of the drive. When I returned to the house I found this pretty little birthday bouquet on my front porch…

Pretty Little Bouquet

The white lilacs in it smell heavenly and I think the little hen on the mug resembles ‘Saucy’ the hen strolling in the garden.

Thanks for the nice surprise, Nancy!

I love my pals

Happy Spring!

Just wanted to wish you all a very Happy Spring, and for those that celebrate it today, a Blessed Easter!

Lilac Buds

Yeehaw!

There are buds. Buds on things that share the herb garden. And there is actually supposed to be sunshine today as well.

That means Spring is here-despite the below freezing night temperatures. Robins have been spotted as well-which makes it all official.

You can see grass greening up which is beyond thrilling. I’ll enjoy it while I can, since I know perfectly well that our lovely Midwest has hellacious Spring storms that can bring tornadoes, ice and snow. Sometimes all at once.

Here is a dwarf Forsythia about to bloom as well.

Kind of brightens up the dull fields behind, don’t you think?

Happy Valentines Day

Here is my special treat for you- I had SO much fun putting this little humorous Valentine video together for my beginner herbs class. I hope you enjoy it!
