Spring Fever
It was so beautiful this weekend, I spent as much time as possible outside. First I went to a couple local nurseries and got a few new plants. The husband had to give me a birthday present a little early, because he was so excited about it. It’s the terra cotta chicken in the pictures. Isn’t it cute? I love it.
The chickens were, of course, very curious about what I was doing. I planted some herbs and flowers in this pot. I hope they’ll have a chance. Yesterday there were about five chickens perched on the edge of the pot investigating it’s contents.
Then I made one of my favorite breakfasts, potatoes, mushrooms, onions and fresh herbs, a grilled tomato and fresh eggs, over easy. Sprinkle with a little hot sauce, grab a good book, sit in the rocking chair on the porch and put up my feet.
And enjoy the view and the beautiful day.
Ahh!
Sadly, I think the crazy chickens have been nibbling and scratching at many of my perennials! I planted a couple hundred tulips last fall, and have yet to see anything coming up. I think the chooks have been enjoying a most expensive spring buffet.
Oh yum, that breakfast looks fab! We were supposed to be having soup for supper but I’m going to have to have egg and bacon now. 🙂
