Our trees are beginning their peak time. Today was especially pretty because the sky was cloudy and the trees glowed against the gray sky. I got my daffodils planted today! Hurray! I had to prepare a new bed because I read that they don't always do well in a perennial bed that has to be watered. I bought a cheap little bag of top soil to add to the area because there isn't much good soil there. I was pleasantly surprised by how well composted the soil was, and I only paid $1.00 for it! I prepped the little bed and thought after they bloom I would just throw some annual seeds over the bed for some summer color. I finally got the rest of my tulips, but I don't have them planted yet. I'm off work Tuesday, so hopefully I can get them in the ground then. Oh goodness, I am just so excited about next Spring!
All this hard work was rewarded with a delicious meal of chili and corn muffins. What a fabulous weekend I've had! I crafted (look for an upcoming post!), planted, cooked and generally just had a bang-up weekend! Now I'm all ready for the week ahead! Bring it on!!

ReplyDeleteYour well ahead of me! I still have most of my bulbs to plant and need to get a move on. It's getting pretty frosty here! Your corn muffins look delicious, by the way. Hope your week goes as well as your weekend did!
ReplyDeleteI think we had the same sort of weekend - but I'd have loved the chili and corn muffins at the end!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures of the woods are so pretty, Leslie! What a perfect backdrop for your home! Hurray for you for getting the daffodils in, you will be so happy next spring! I really needed to do a fall clean up of my beds but never got the time so I will have to be surprised with what comes up!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had such a warm and cozy weekend, your supper sounds delicious!
