...first of all...I thought it was time for a critter update...they are all non-plussed by the current global situation...
...Callie napping on the steps...but she will spend a happy hour or so sitting in my lap on the porch...purring her happy little whisper purr and kneading her paws on my tummy...she's a sweetie for sure...
...Jack will turn 15 this summer...and still makes himself right at home on the sofa...
...kitten sleeps in the strangest positions and in the strangest places...
...Jack sleeping on his bed...with his tongue out like a puppy...
...now a plant update...this is the shamrock plant that one of our sweet parishioners gave me our first year here...so it's 5 years old now...and it blooms every year...she has passed away now...so it's sweet that I have the plant...
...and the foxglove that Mom gave me last year is blooming...
...it's really pretty...
...it's just about time to make some more Bee Free Honee...so this time instead of chamomile tea to give the honee that pollen-y taste I collected some clover flowers from the yard...and just hung them up to dry in the kitchen window...I'll let you know how that turns out when I make the Honee...
...on the food front...I cooked the huge bunch of collards that I got in my pick-up groceries...so nice to have that...really nice to have any veg in addition to broccoli...haha...
...and remember all those potatoes...I made some baked home fries/hash browns for breakfast...with some onion and tofu...
...still trying to eat at least one potato apiece each day...
...and finally...on the home front...we pulled all the appliances out and cleaned around and behind them...it's always so gross...and so satisfying when it's all clean and back in place...
~Wishing you a lovely start to your week!

I planted the foxgloves Mom gave me at lot in Oriental. They did fine for a while - then we had Hurricane Dorian flood the lot - we had 3' of salty water standing for a few hours we think. Anything tender like foxgloves did not survive. Oh well - yours are beautiful! Wow, I'm impressed with the cleaning behind the appliances. I have never done that as a chore. Only cleaned those areas when the item is dragged out for maintenance. I can see the satisfaction though! Love, K
ReplyDeleteNice to see your furry kids... Jack's fur looks sooooo soft!!!!!!!!!!!!! Arwen (my old rescued sled dog) say hi to all of them! She looooooooooves cats!
ReplyDeleteKnow what you means by the satisfaction after cleaning the back of the stove or the fridge! DId this a couple of weeks ago.

ReplyDeleteoh jack! love seeing him!
and kitten's choice spot there looks like it's directly in the sunshine - purr-fect
about your honee - have you ever made dandelion jelly? it tastes and looks just like honey!
Hi Elizabeth,
Delete...I have never made dandelion jelly...but it's definitely on my list of things to make...I've got to find a good source of dandelions that haven't been sprayed...
~Have a lovely day!
