We are Pretending it's Spring

My neighbor baked a lovely summery strawberry cake today and shared it with us.  Delicious.
And I continue to sew clothes pin bags for my Etsy shoppe.  Had to wait for the all-day-pouring
rain to stop around suppertime so I could hang it on the clothesline for a snapshot!
Such a damp chill in the air called for a crock pot full of beef vegetable stew.... it saved the day!
Hope it's warmer where you live.

Like Snow Off a Duck's Back.....


Wait, isn't it supposed to be "like water off a duck's back?"  Mr. and Mrs. Mallard have been hanging around in the snow under our bird feeder.  After on-again off-again spring, we had a good 6" of snow dumped on us here over night complete with power outages.  Hopefully this late spring storm will be the last.   Only our hound-mix, Reggie, gets it right.... have a good nap somewhere comfy!
