How was your Easter? Ours was quiet, but nice. We exchanged Easter baskets as we have been doing for forty-six years now and ate at IHOP:) What about yours? Was it spent with family and friends? AND
In The Garden
Azaleas for Andrew.
If you're wondering about the wedging halfway up, it's where the roses have grown through the fencing.
You are probably tired of hearing this every spring but what I miss about the Midwest are the lilacs. These aren't as lush as typical Midwestern lilacs but they have a delicate, lovely scent.
AND
Our own personal ostrich dog. Instead of sand, she buries her head in a blanket.
AND
Celebrating Earth Day AND our dear Elizabeth's Birthday
That's all for now;)

HAPPY BEARTHDAY ELIZABETH.
Love your garden. Easter was quiet here - which is fine.
To Elizabeth, who I know not, HAPPY BEARTHDAY! If the word ‘Earth’ is featured I am happy to climb aboard. Easter came and went in our house as it always does, unnoticed and unmarked. But I hear the Head Honcho in Rome died. There will probably be teeth-gnashing, wailing and breast-beating over that. Me? I have to shop for mushrooms.
Happy birthday to Elizabeth.
Quiet Easter - church and a nice dinner at home. And we always exchange Easter gifts as well.
Happy Birthday Elizabeth! May your day be fun with cake. Sandra, your flowers are so beautiful and I love your Azaleas.
Happy Birthday Elizabeth! I love your flowers. It's just warming up here. I can't wait to see all my flowers, but it'll be three to four weeks before I can even plant them.
Happy birthday to Elizabeth.
I mostly stayed home on Easter, feeling sleepy.
Lovely flowers
Thanks, EC. Glad you had a good day.
David, Yay for climbing aboard Earth Day:)
Alex, Your Easter sounds lovely. Glad to hear you exchange gifts as well.
Thanks, Birgit, and let's hear it for cake!
Hey Natalie, Yay for flowers in 3 or 4 weeks.
What beautiful flowers, Sandra. Our azaleas are in bloom now, but we're a ways from seeing irises, roses, and lilacs. A couple of weeks to a month. And your "ostrich" made me laugh. Sooo cute!
Hi Sandra - glad you had a happy time ... I had a family affair - which was for the elderly! Fine by me ... love your ostrich animal ... I had a cat like that (many) years ago! Cheers Hilary
Bellas flores. Te mando un beso.
We were mostly home too, Jamie.
Thanks, Christine:P)
Thanks, Diana. Glad your azaleas are blooming. Our irises won't be around much longer nor the lilacs. Fortunately,I should have the roses all summer. Our ostrich dog is a mess:)
Hils, I'm pleased you had a family affair to attend. Cheers,
Thanks, J.P. Sending you hugs,
Sorry I'm so late visiting. Thanks for all the bEARTHday wishes. Had to laugh at David. He DOES know me, but without Bleubeard with me, I'm just another name. Bleubeard is the REAL face and icon of our blog.
Love your irises and lilacs. I miss mine, so I will binge on yours. Hope you had a productive Earth Day.
Thanks, Elizabeth, and I hope you and the earth had a wondrous bday.
Your Easter sounds perfect! I love all your blooms. Ours was Saturday with kids (not laid back) and just us Sunday (very laid back!) Gorgeous pix here.
We still exchange baskets too. It was our first holiday together. Busy weekend and celebrating. Your garden is gorgeous! Xo
Jeanie, You can't beat spending time with the kiddos. I'm thrilled you had that opportunity.
The garden and myself thank you:)
Denise, Yay on the Easter baskets, though I shouldn't be surprised as our journeys share so many similarities.
My garden and I thank you.
