Busy Monday

 Monday was a busy day, as Mondays always seem to be. Besides the usual laundry I sowed some flower seeds in peat pots just to give them a head start once the earth has warmed and I can put them in the ground. I don't imagine the Sweet Williams will bloom this year but the Nasturtiums and Morning Glories most certainly will.

 

Our Lilacs are blooming and DH brought some in. I also have a Hyacinth in a vase in the kitchen and the scent of these two old favourites is almost overpowering.


 I made another of my Impossible Pies. This time with rhubarb that was from our own garden. It is delicious and if you want the recipe just look for Impossible Rhubarb Cake and you will find it.

picture is from the internet.


 That was  yesterday and now a new day waits for me to decide what I'll do next.  I hope your day is a good one!!

 

Thanks for coming by.

 Leave a comment so I know that you did💗

    I guess it's about time to bake my rhubarb cake. Maybe for Mother's Day. Maybe I can find some "kids" to feed it to.

  10. Our lilac is a little bit later than yours. My dear husband now started some or more different sorts of tomato-plants in little bowls, but they still are sleeping - -. My Monday is also always very busy by cleaning the house. The Rhubarb Cake looks very delicious! Can you send me one piece of it? :)
