I haven't been here since February 11...WOW!
That's over a month since I last posted!!
I've been busier now than I ever was when I was working!
But, I'm enjoying my retirement so much!!!!!
A friend of mine saw the above saying & asked if I could paint it on a wooden box for her.
I L.O.V.E. how it turned out!
Looks great with my flowers in it!
There are some other new projects in the works but I haven't gotten them quite finished.
I'll be sure to post them soon!
Can't wait to taste it with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top!!!
M-m-mm-m-mm-m-mm-m!!
It's not open yet but this is the largest bloom (or almost a bloom) I have ever had on my lilac bush!
We don't have the best growing season for them here in GA.
I planted this bush 7 years ago & am finally getting a real bloom!!
Not a big deal to you folks in the Midwest & North but to this Iowa gal, now living in GA, it's a MIRACLE!!!
I can't wait to smell the fragrance!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hope the rain that's coming will wash some of the pollen out of our air!

ReplyDeleteHi Olive!
DeleteI agree! I had 2 children of my own & neither one grew up to be a good weed picker!! Maybe not enough training??!

I love the sign with the flowers, so cute!I'm a new follower and I'd love to have you stop by my brand new blog and follow too:) My first link party/give-away is going right now and ends tonight at midnight. I hope you'll stop by and link up!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely love that saying! Hope your lilac brings back wonderful memories-enjoy:@)
ReplyDeleteLove the flower box....the saying is just too cute. Thanks for sharing at Manic Monday.
ReplyDeletePopped over here from Sew Darn Crafty - your box made me laugh. I love it. So clever! I imagine your cherry pies is long gone! :) I made one last week too. Hope you're lilacs are in full bloom! I have one nice bush in the bunkhouse yard and I'm like a little kid when it blooms - I get so excited. Its a gamble growing anything here in NM with our wind.
ReplyDeleteCute blog! The pie looks delicious! We loved having you at "Strut Your Stuff Saturday." We hope to see you again soon! -The Sisters
ReplyDeleteKeeping my fingers crossed for your lilacs...one of my favorite flowers too! Love your sign.
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about time and retirement!

What a wonderful box. So great to have you be a part of Seasonal Sundays. Hope you'll join me this week too.

That flower box is so fun!!! I might have to borrow the saying to make something for my Mom, she'd get a kick out of it! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love the flower box...that saying is so fun. I think I must paint it on something in backyard. The grandkids will love it...well, maybe not. :)
ReplyDeleteThaks for sharing!!
Any possibility of buying a box like this one - complete with saying?? I love it!!
