Hyacinth



These hyacinth bulbs were being drenched in my garden the other day, but I thought they looked beautiful.

Ironically, I just read a post from 'how not to act old' telling us (tongue in cheek) to resist the urge to do just that! lol. I must be getting old because I couldn't help myself!

I found this nice recipe in a magazine recently and am going to try a version of it, maybe today. It's called 'Creamy dilled crab and sun-dried-tomato pasta'.

We're having sunny, summery weather again. Today a goose stopped traffic crossing the road. It's funny, he did it right at that traffic light! The other thing you have to watch out for are the school kids on their bikes and sometimes they sit on the sidewalks.

Your hyacinths are beautiful!
It sounds like you need to get a "Goose Crossing" sign : )

Oh those flowers are so pretty! My neighbor across the street has some and I always feel the temptation to pick them, but I don't! :o)

I had only seen egg cups in movies and catalogs never ever used one until Mr. T introduced me to them. The toy soldiers is a new phrase to me too. Your flowers are beautiful.
Thanks for stopping by.

How great that the traffic actually stopped for the goose.

And your flowers are gorgeous. I think they're may favorite color ever.

Happy summery days,

Hope the goose made it across the road okay. A herd of swans once blocked the road in England.
