What a glorious day to celebrate Easter. Here are a few things that are happening around my household ……. Our street is lined with these beautiful cherry blossoms. The eggs are all decorated for Easter and lastly, here is a little hint on my “little but big surprise” I’ll unveil on Tuesday morning. Looks like bunny feet doesn’t it. Can you guess?

Snowdrops

We had a bout of sunshine here in Vancouver over the weekend and I heard we are in for a smidge more. The little white flowers in my garden called snow drops are a sure sign that spring is in the air. Dare I say snow?? But every year when I see these little flowers that drop their heads so gently I can’t help but get excited. In celebration, I decided to make some cookies that share the same name. When the sun shines like it did yesterday, I can almost taste spring and forget about snow. Here’s my Snowdrop cookie recipe. My apologies it’s not gluten free but I’m sure for those that would like to make it gluten free, the recipe is pretty simple to substitute. ~ ENJOY

I just love ‘em

When I was a kid I used to think they were made of cotton candy …….

I just love ‘em.

In the garden

I hope you all had a nice weekend.

I finally got out and did a little bit of clean up in our garden, it’s only the beginning and I must say it was a total workout. Every muscle aches but to stand back and appreciate the hard work is so gratifying. Now, I have to find some more time and limber up for the next bit of gardening still to tackle.

But let’s face it, when the sun is shining no matter how much work needs to be done, it all seems that much better.

Just a couple of snaps to show the first flowers to bloom …… I couldn’t help but post two pictures of the camellias.

Have a great week everyone !!!
