Do you see what I see?

I never would of expected that the seeds would of sprouted already!!  Check it out…

And never would I have guessed that it would be my broccoli and cucumbers!

Spring is that you?

We saw our first robin bird yesterday!!  Now it has to snow on this poor little bird three times and then spring can officially start… or that is how the saying goes around here. 

It was a beautiful day here yesterday!  It made me so excited for spring and for long hot summer nights!  We spent most of the day outside soaking up our vitamin D. 

With all this heat and sunshine it made me crave summer foods!  It was a perfect meal for the start of spring!  Veggie & Cheese Bagel Sandwiches I highly recommend that you try these… and soon!  I can’t wait for our garden because we’ll be able to eat this all summer long – and they will be even better with homegrown veggies!!

Then we took Maggy on a walk back in the woods and everything is flooding!  It just made her even more crazier!  She was running like I never seen her run before.  And splashing in the water!  We didn’t think she liked water because she hates getting a shower (we do showers instead of baths) and she was afraid of the water hose yesterday… except she loves puddles and small rivers!!  She was completely soaked from head to tail when we got back and she was just loving it!!

Today we are suppose to reach 60!! Yes!!  60!!  You’ll find us out back on the deck grilling up some blue cheese burgers!!!

Planted!

St. Patrick’s Day is on Tuesday… which is the day I was told I could start my garden seeds.  Except we had a beautiful day here today!  Temps in the high 40s, full sunshine, snow was melting, birds were singing… so I decided I was planting a few days early!!

Now the hard part is letting them grow and not bugging them.  I already want to take the lids off and see if anything sprouted and it has only been a couple hours. 

I’m trying out a new program with this blog post… Windows Live Writer.  Have any of you tried this?  So far I love it!  It is liking writing in word and when you insert pictures they go where your cursor is – not at the top of the post!!  You’ll have to check it out if that picture posting drives you crazy like it does me – it was a free download/program.  Plus you can change the contrast of the picture, the size, rotate, add a watermark… all within this nifty little program.  Oh you can even convert the picture to black & white and do effects to the pictures!!  Um, y’all better be going to get this cause I think it is the next big thing!!  ; )
