Amaryllis and a Failed Recipe

 

 

Another beautiful morning. 6C when I first checked but rising as the morning progresses. I have a to-do list and will get to that shortly.  Before I do that I want to share with you the pictures of my 3 Amaryllis that are blooming. First one is Nymph  which has the largest flowers of any that I have.


 

The next one to open was Red Lion... 


 ....then Terra Cotta


I may have mentioned in last post that I was making an Impossible Pineapple Pie.  It was not very good and I won't keep that recipe. I think it's the first of the Impossible Pies that I've tried that wasn't tasty. 
Oh well, DH says Don't throw it out, so I won't, but I doubt anyone else in the family will like it.

Did you notice the lilacs beside the pie?  There is a lilac bush blooming on a vacant lot and as we walked by DH picked a small branch. I love their scent so much.  Yesterday when Eldest came at lunch she brought a bigger branch for me to enjoy. My kitchen smells heavenly.

I think I should get at my list for today and make sure everything gets done so I can read out on the porch.  📚📖📑📓📕📋📝📚

 

Thanks for visiting

  1. That's sad about the impossible Pie, but the beauty of those flowers is something else!

  2. I have amaryllis envy! None of mine rebloomed this year and the bulbs don't look healthy. I'll have to start over when the bulbs appear in shops next autumn.
    Pineapple upside-down cake is a favorite in our family--I've never tried the 'impossible' recipes.

  3. You can save the pie with ice cream - ice cream fixes a LOT.
