Good morning to all - I’m way past due for a catch-up, and I have no idea where the time has gone! It’s been so nice to read your posts and follow along on all that you’re doing. Thanks so much for taking the time to share your adventures, recipes, and daily routine. I love reading about the goings-on whether you’re in Nod, the Piedmont of North Carolina, or far away in the north of England and New Zealand.
Spring has not sprung here, well, maybe it did for a few days. It’s been in the low 70’s some days, which found me raking fall leaves from flower beds, gathering tree limbs into piles for burning, and generally trying to clean up the “mess” that remains after a long winter.
April has brought unexpected snow bursts, tornado watches, seemingly endless downpours of rain, and they say perhaps even a little snow this afternoon And yet, mixed in with all of that, have been some beautiful Spring days filled with birdsong and blue skies.
Today there’s a fire going as it’s 35 degrees and I just saw a forecast of 19 degrees Monday night! Time to pull out spare sheets and blankets to cover up the tender perennials that are just peeking out of the ground.
Enough about the weather…a quick catch-up…
A friend surprised me with some lovely flowers along with 6 gallons of milk from her sweet jersey, Alice!
