Spring has Sprung and all is Dusty Yellow!

Today is a glorious day! I took a mile walk, and now I am watering the garden we planted yesterday. The nursery was a busy place on a sunny Palm Sunday! Hubby and I got tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers. After getting them in the ground, I fertilized my snap peas and harvested some more broccoli. I am letting the broccoli bloom out a lot, though, because the bees LOVE the flowers, and that will bring precious pollinators to my new little tomato plants, some of which already have tiny blooms. Broccoli has the loveliest, most delicate yellow bloom; they are really pretty and edible!

But the air is yellow! Really, I mean really yellow. I have a blue car, and the Oak pollen has coated it as if it needed talcum. When I drive, some of it blows off, and when it rains, everyone has a polka dot car. Driving country roads, one can see what looks like a dust cloud from a recent car, but it is just clouds of pollen blowing out of Oaks. And here in the deep south, there are a zillion big old Oaks!

The photo I posted below is of little Abigail and Hannah, watching their favorite show, Calliou. They can watch 1/2 hour of TV at my house on Wednesday, when they visit me. This is their choice, and they cozy up together and it gives me time to make the lunch!!! There is a method to my madness, but it is their first choice of shows, too.

There they sit, in my hubby's grandma's rocker, which makes it their great-great-grandmother's rocker. I do not have anything that belonged to my great-great grandmothers, so I hope to keep it for them to have someday.

Well, back outside now to move the sprinklers!
