"SPRING IS HERE...

                           I just love my daffodils...so cheerful......
💛💛💛
A few little iris pushing their green swords up.....💜💜💜

And 
one of our Azalea bushes is budded out↡↡↡↡
         Now, if the deer don't eat the buds, we'll have flowers soon..

            "Spring is here.........why doesn't my heart go dancing?..."

*******************************
The past few days, I have been on edge and unable to sew that
much; so, I am trying to re-organize a bit,
here and there; cooking, cleaning etc., just staying busy.....
and trying to find fabric for the centers of my 
"Seaside Spring" rings...
                   ↶↶↶







Something that


speaks  of


the Ocean...and the

blue-blue-chilly waters..

The winds are still brisk here and so despite the lovely sunshine, 
it is a bit too cool to sit outside just yet...

********************************
Our first Instacart delivery of groceries is slated for anywhere from 
4-6 p.m. tonight...
So,  
we had our big meal at noon--[leftover roast beef dinner from last
night...still really good...] 
knowing we would have to  de-virus the 
delivery when it arrives..

Waving to you all ~ ~ ~ Julierose, La blageuse (searching-euse)

  1. Still awaiting our first daffodils, but the buds are swelling ... Our iris are up, one peony is popping out of the ground, and the rhubarb is leafed out already. If there's anything that'll ward off virus, it has to be rhubarb - spring tonic! Leftover beef roast sounds mighty good, we're having leftover chicken. Grocery store tomorrow morning, as early as I can manage. We're out of fresh veggies and bananas.

  2. It must be roast season! I have one in the oven right now for dinner tonight. Hope the shopping delivers everything you need. Your blues are lovely.

  3. I have daffodils. I think I spied tulip leaves. I don't blame you for being anxious. This is going way longer than we were originally expecting.

  4. Daffodils are beauties. Thanks for sharing your spring flowers.
    We had rain last night, April showers.
    Borscht on the menu here.

  5. So wonderful to see the Spring flowers in this post - a cheering sight indeed.
    Being late with post reading I see your RSC nw project Seaside Spring and such a calming project with the lovely circles in those colours.

  6. It’s so lovely to see your spring flowers, Julierose. We do have a dump of tulips that have opened (they have a southern exposure), but everything else is still hiding out. It’s very cool and windy here today too. As soon as I filled the bird feeders, the birds flocked in and filled up. I wonder if they know a Storm is coming? The Washington Post had an article today about the trouble many of us are having focusing during these times. Just go with the flow and be kind to yourself. I’m sitting here at nearly 7 in the evening, waiting for a call from Bruce’s or his doctor. He’s supposed to be released from the hospital today. This is crazy!!!

  7. Your daffodils are a cheery sight.

    Hope your groceries arrived safely! I'm still trying to sort out deliveries for my father.

  8. Your spring flowers are so wonderful. Aren't daffodils the *best* flower? So happy and frilly like a child's Easter dress. And the shocking pink rhododendrons are delightful. I do hope the deer eat something else.
    How did you de-virus the groceries?

  9. I love your daffodils, reminds me of my childhood. I hope you are able to find some peace of mind in your organization and busy-work. I know it helps me to do a little cleaning up in my sewing room, and I find myself organizing little areas all around the house, so there must be something to that!
