Inspiration for Tuesday, April 28 – 2009
Trio
It’s a happy day when I start cutting my own fresh flowers every day. My friend Phyllis Moore gave me some flowers from her garden in this elegant little mustard jar and I choose it many times over fancier vases. I planted a variety of daffodils so when one variethy is on the wane, another is blooming and another is just starting up out of the ground. The ones just opening are very fragrant and more ruffled than these.
Nature Report: The plants turned out to be bluebells; the bleeding hearts and tulips are just starting. The robins are finally building nests instead of attacking our windows; the hummingbird feeder is up. I have heard wrens, but not seen them. The cedar waxwings cleaned off the viburnum berries, but left the ornamental crabapples. The creek has a pair of geese and I saw a small heron fly over early one morning. It’s 40 degrees and windy, but Spring is here.
