A nice rain and a pitiful lunch...

Hi, all....
THANKS SO MUCH 
for all the warm wishes for Mr. Sweet's birthday and our anniversary.
We shared a grand day with each other and with our family.

I've been working around inside the Summer House 
because it's been waaay too windy to work outside...where I'd really LIKE to be.

I am so ready to play with my potting bench...




this is the way it looked 3 years ago, before
THE BIG MOVE..

but that pretty red has faded and I have the beautiful red spray paint to bring her back to life...

if only the
West Texas
winds would work with me.....





So, in the meantime, I've been
cleaning
re-arranging...
inside the Summer House
                                                                 and that's all I can do for now.


I've enjoyed many new flowers and plants inside that I'll move outside a little later.


These were for our 56th anniversary.
 ♥ ♥ ♥
 Today the wind settled a bit and....



We loved loved loved every single drop and it's still cloudy
so we are hoping for more rain thru the night.


I haven't  been cooking a lot lately....


Pretty pitiful lunch, hu.....
outdoor wed.

    Hi BJ I spy Pecans in that fruit salad... Never thought to add nuts amd Pecans are my favorite nut. Love all your Spring flowers you were gifted for your 56th anniversary.

    I went out and bought a cast iron oven-proof skillet and all the "fixins" for making a German pancake with your recipe. Now all I need is a quiet evening with no other demands on my time to give it a whirl! I'll keep you posted!

    We had a freeze recently which is strange for April. Probably killed a lot of plants

    BJ, I am with you I can hardly wait to get outside. Here it has been more the cold than the wind keeping us from working outside.... In fact the weather people are hinting more snow could be on the way later this week.

    God bless.

    BJ, I love your plants and I have been wanting out to play too. We should be able to finish my pansies by this weekend. Spring has been fickle this year. Hope your son is still recovering nicely. He's in my prayers. Blessings, xoxo,Susie

    I should grow some Texas Bluebonnets here since I love them so much. We've got high winds and on and off rain. So no planting yet, but soon!

    It has been windy here also and we got rain almost 2 inches day before yesterday. It is cloudy and they say we may get more rain today. Your lunch looks good. Love your plants. Hope the wind stops so you can get out and spray paint your potting table. Prayers are still with your son. Have a blessed day. Madeline

    Lovely puttering. I don't think lunch looks so bad. A little yellow/orange but I bet it tasted good.
    It's raining here today. I nice little soaking rain. 'Cept I was on my way out to Big Lots for Blue for the patio and the ACE next door for a can of Blue spray paint and it's too wet. I would definately melt!
    Thanks for sharing your day. Hope the rest of your week is Blessed.

    What a great potting bench, love the red. I really like your gift, you will sure enjoy it when the weather turns nice.
    Nothing ever comes out of your kitchen using the term "pitiful" and I think it's a delicious lunch.
    Continue to take care, full blown cooking will be back soon enough…….
