It seems like everything has just exploded around here in the last week or so. Yesterday I finally had some time to wander around and take a few photos.. The apple blossoms are open! It's my favorite flower.. the smell is heavenly. And the sound of all the bees busily gathering nectar is incredible! I would love to get married under an apple tree in full bloom. My favorite flowers and my favorite little insects surrounding us. :) (Would the bees freak out the guests??) (This is Phlox subulata 'Candystripe'. It makes a pretty mound and is one of the first things to bloom in our garden.)
Every year the empty lot across the street gets painted in yellow. I think it's so pretty. I'll never understand why some people hate dandelions so much. This morning I watched two goldfinches enjoy a breakfast of the seeds. My friend the carpenter bee. :) Another one of my favorites - violets (mixed in with some lady's mantle, which I also love!). And we have a robin nest on our back light! I've been watching her work on it for the last week or so and I peeked in it yesterday (I had to use a mirror!).. there's one egg in it so far.
Hello! Thanks for visiting. I love to sew and knit. I love thrifting and searching for old treasures. I'm trying to be as green as possible and apply it to my daily life. Please leave a comment and say hi! :)

lovely photos... I wonder if the Robin enjoys the warmth from the porch light?
we haven't been using the light for fear of a fire (and it might scare her maybe?). :)
