Well, happy almost-birthday!! This was a fun post to scroll through, especially the pansies. Just beautiful!
Thanks Allison!
The pics all look awesome Anna. We are glad you are enjoying the gifts.
I am glad you like it! Can’t wait for the tamale adventure!
It’s been a fun year to follow all your posts and share the fun!
Thanks Kat! I am so glad you have been so involved with it. You all have been a big inspiration!
Your cocktail looks so pretty.
Thanks Anne! I’ll be posting it later this week. Be sure to check back!
27th May or your turning 27? Either way, Happy Birthday! Thanks for showing us what’s in your kitchen this month 🙂
I am 27 today! Thanks Lisa for the well wishes and stopping by the blog this month 🙂
so pretty. I wish I knew how to keep the squirrels and the deer away so I can see form pretty summer flowers in my yard or deck… Alas I tried everything. with no luck. Pretty colorful flowers. I love them. Pratibha
Have you thought of getting some urine from a sporting goods store? I know that sounds really gross but some people swear by it.
I heard about it online. I don’t like to use that. This year some herbs have started coming up on the deck. Hopefully it will not be eaten up before they actually sprout.
Beautiful pansies…
Thank you for the compliment and for stopping by!
Happy birthday, Anna! Love your gorgeous spring flowers, and that spruce salt sounds intriguing! Have a wonderful month! x
Thanks Celia! I can’t wait to try the spruce salt. I just don’t know what for yet. Maybe seafood? What do you think?
I love the pansies. They told me you are in the Northern hemisphere. My ‘winter pansies’ are blooming like mad and it is more than half way through May.
Belated Happy Birthday.
I love them too! They are doing so well this year. I don’t have enough pots or land for all the things I want to grow. 🙂
And thanks for stopping by!
pansies my very favorite and purple- what more can a Sunday need?
Thanks for stopping by Kathy! I don’t think anything is better than purple pansies.
