Ketch-Up Day


How are you? How goes your week? I saw my first Swallowtail this week. If Spring isn't here, it's arriving shortly.

Soon, CJ. Soon. 

 

Do you know, what kind of steak this is?  Here's a hint....It's not beef:)




 AND

The violets are up.  I love them but I didn't realize how invasive they are.  They are making a grab to take over the garden. 


AND

The HH got me an Easter dishtowel:) Move over Easter bunny, the Easter kitties are coming to town.

AND

Now the answer to your quizz:) It's a watermelon radish steak.  This is a pic of it before it was cooked.


That's it for now, Blogger Buds.  Ever had Watermelon Radish Steak OR Watermelon Steak? Have violets up? Got your Easter decorations out? I blush to admit I don't and times flying.....Have a grand one.

Ketch-up Day

 


 It's been a very messy winter, hence the new mat.  It's very scarifying...at least for Frank.  He wouldn't come in from the screened-in porch until I moved it. Maybe he's afraid that whatever giant beast made that footprint may be lurking around.  The other critters could care less. Of course, they don't have Frank's highly developed sense of danger. 


 

 

 

Spring is here...at least temporarily

The HH has gone from complaining about how cold it is when the temp drops to 40 to  grumbling about how he'll probably have to mow this month. 😀

 

The forsythia bushes are in bloom. 

 

Birds love to hide in this one.
 

 

The hyacinths are also blooming.


 And the grape hyacinths

 

AND From Illinois, cat and squirrel antics.

Thanks, Jan.


 

 

What's going on at your place, Blogger Buds? Got spring flowers? Grumbles about 'it's to early to mow'? Squirrel sightings? Scaredy cats?;)
