One Quick Photo

Just a quick photo from the garden and a little note to say I need to head out of  town this weekend, for family reasons. However, "Sunlit Sunday" is scheduled to publish on Saturday evening, as usual, so please carry on, link your post and enjoy the ones added by others. Thanks!

❀ Showing Promise

I was happy to find that my first colourful crocuses of the season have popped up in the garden. As well, the daffodil buds are getting plumper by the day.

As for the snowdrops tucked in a dark corner, how did I never notice them at this stage in previous years, with the beautiful green patterns on the white petaled backdrop? I really do think that blogging makes me look at things more closely.

The fuzzy magnolia buds (having dealt successfully with winter's snow) are showing promise, as are the sturdy tulip leaves that have poked through the earth and pushed their way through last year's mulch. There are no blasts of colour here, but time will change that.

After the struggle, comes the bloom.

Here's to spring arriving, officially, this week!

What do you love about the new season?

If you're on the other half of the world, feel free to comment on autumn!

☀ Sunlit Sunday (#11): Warm Biscuits

The sun shone a fair bit this past week and one would think I'd have a few photos featuring the rays on something outdoors.

Yet, 

here I have warm biscuits, 

sitting in the sunshine, 

ready to come out of the pan.

There's nothing like a little comfort food now and again.

The added sunshine is a bonus, or should I "gravy" for the biscuits, in honour of my southern friends!

Leave a comment, leave a link, leave a "follower", just don't leave too quickly!
Have a biscuit.

Almost-Spring Wishes

I'm wishing you these on this almost-spring day.

☀ Sunlit Sunday (#10): You're On Your Own

Hello, Everyone

I needed to leave town for awhile, on a family matter. This little post is being scheduled in advance for Sunlit Sunday. I hope it goes off without a hitch.

Please link-up and play nicely amongst yourselves. I'll be sure to visit you when I have the chance.

Warm wishes to all,
Karen
