Happy Easter



Days getting longer


spring flowers ranunculous  and hyacinth


overblown parrot tulips


the rabbit  -ever the symbol of spring


Peter and Ian-Down- the Hall made rabbit cookies and...


very impressive homemade Peeps!




Pussy willow up at Union Square


where we went to buy some color for the tree pits....



I won $2 on a scratch off....and discovered a little Peter Rabbit jug from when the children were small....

  4. everything is so pretty in your world, The wrinkly pink tulips look like the one's my mother had, they lasted for years because they were plastic of the highest quality. I ate a chocolate Jesus today and a licorice pipe- yay Easter.

  6. You ask whether Tess was with us on our walk today Elizabeth. I cannot imagine even trying to get out of the house without her when we are heading for a walk in the fields. I think she almost smells every blade of grass in case it has the smell of bunnies - but she is hopeless at catching them. Sorry it is still cold there.
