Hi from a Michigander (a troll)! :frow Hubby and I have been to Copper Harbor several times. What a beautiful area.
("Troll" in this case means someone who lives below the bridge, ie, in the lower peninsula.)
You guys are SO far ahead of us! We have daffodils in bloom. That's it. No flowering trees yet.
Technically, maples and "the tree down the road that drops catkin-like thingies" are flowering, but not the "pretty" flowers like cherry, apple, and redbud. Those are a few weeks away.
2.5-3" of rain in the past 24 hours. The ground is saturated (no longer frozen). There are big puddles out in the alfalfa fields near us.
I'm putting off planting seeds in the green house until next week. I was hoping to do it by April 1st, but we have 3-4 nights of below freezing temps coming...
I think I'll be planting seeds in the green house this coming Tuesday or Wednesday. It's going to be chilly at night; 3-4 nights of below freezing temps. Tuesday and Wednesday look to have some sunshine, so I hope the pots warm up enough.
Poured rain off and on all day, so I didn't do much.
I did take a nap, falling asleep to the sound of the rain.
I knit more on my hat. I could finish it tonight, but I'm going to leave it for tomorrow. It's not going to be much nicer weather tomorrow, so I need more indoor stuff to do.
About 2.5-3" of rain in the last 24 hours. I put piles of leaves in the washed out places from the last heavy rain. So this time, there are new gullies. Not much I can do but fill them in.
I read a few recipes for cloud bread; all were bun-sized circles. I hadn't thought about making a loaf.
One recipe used cottage cheese instead of cream cheese. If I ever make cloud bread, I'll use this recipe. I'm more likely to have cottage cheese on hand. If I don't, I won't mind buying some...
I happened to wake up half an hour before my alarm and it was just raining lightly. Got up, got Freya her potty walk, got inside before the skies opened and it poured.
Waking up half hour before my alarm went off made me happy. Because I got up, took Freya out to do her morning potty, and got back inside before the deluge started! :ya
Great idea! Practical question: Where on a shovel will a label NOT fall off? Things like shovels, rakes, garden hand tools... mine get handled roughly at times, get wet and/or dirty a lot. That's hard on any kind of label.
