Leopard's Bane and Teacups

 We had a break in the rainy weather and I took out the garden teacups, an annual job that gets done
around the time that the Leopard's Bane blooms. (Doronicum orientale)


 Most of the teacups are in the back but some, including my kitty tea pot, are in front, along the driveway.


 Once a month we get together with DH's brothers and SILs at a little restaurant and today was that day. I am not a person who enjoys eating out, preferring my own food, but it is nice to visit and eat with friends. 
Once I got back home I changed into my jeans and went out to enjoy the sunshine before the next round of rain. Later I sat on the porch and had some one-on-one time with my grandson M.
That was my day.

Thanks for visiting

  2. Sounds like a good day.
    I'm not really a big eating out fan either, especially "doing lunch".
    I enjoyed the dry, sunny day too.

  3. So all teacups survived the winter *_*_*_*_ The Kitty-tea-pot is very sweet *_*_*_*_*_
    My stomach lives better with my own food.

  7. Oh dear GM, I do love your teacups display. How neat! Girl, I am the same way about eating out. I would much rather have my own cooking. Plus the dang wait and cost is crazy. However when we have a dr. appointment we do venture out to eat and try to eat somewhere different than the last time. We call it our day date! Ha! Those are the best kinds. Hugs and blessings, Cindy

  12. If you had any doubts, the Leopard's Bane are telling you that spring is definitely here.

  13. My but your yard is looking lovely already! Here there is still a snowdrift blocking my pathway to the edge of the flower garden but hoping that this weekend's forecasted warmth will melt most of it. Your teacups are so cute!
