I have a whole lot of nothing today. But rather than just not posting I thought I would pop on and chat.
I was being all cocky about our fabulous California weather a couple of weeks ago and it has turned on me! Last night we had a terrific hail storm (drifts of it!) and this morning when I drove to work the hilltops were frosted with snow! That never happens around here. Luckily it didn't quite freeze in our garden. We have so much emerging growth so it could have been disastrous. We do need the rain (that accompanied the hail) so that is good. We'll take it.
I've started pulling out Easter decorations. I honestly don't have much. A few rabbits and my childhood Easter basket but that is about it.
Oh hi Grace always lurking in the background.
I love that rabbit. My sister Nicki gave him to me and when my dad saw it he asked "Is that a bomb on his back??" So it's the bunny with the bomb forevermore. I do love a rabbit with a serious countenance. No cartoony rabbits around here.
I'm also working on a crafty Easter project so my office/craft room is an absolute tip. I can barely get to my keyboard for all the bits of paper and glitter laying around. It actually started out as a Christmas project but I thought it would work for Easter too. Stay tuned to this space for more on that…
Did you know that Alstroemeria is dangerous to cats? I have to be so careful with what I put on the coffee table because a certain two misses like to chew on plants. I usually only have carnations or roses. Alstroemeria is for photographic purposes only. It went up on the mantel immediately after the picture was taken.
I hope your week is going well!
It’s funny that you mentioned that Alstroemeria is poisonous for cats. I saw on my way to work that it’s this week’s special at the florist and thought of stopping by to get some. Now I won’t! With 7 cats, I won’t take a chance! Your cats are beautiful!
Yeah its too bad because Alstoemeria is such a workhorse of a flower. They last forever. Rick looked it up after he saw the cats going after it. I have a friend whose cat would bite the rose buds off all her arrangement. Just bite them clean off and spit them out.
Your cats are just beautiful! I have very little Easter décor either, a ceramic bunny that looks like stone and mostly just flowers everywhere. Now that the kids are gone I don’t decorate like I used to. I’m kind of loving the cleaner look, and not having to find a place to store it!
