We are all settling into a fine spring, the pups and us, and we took advantage of last week's fine weather. The pups are definitely more comfortable here and love being outside with us, so garden chores are very sweet this year. We picked and juiced all the oranges in one day, washed the windows (back yard only) and scrubbed all the outdoor cushions and furniture. I've still got masses to do before I can call the backyard summer ready, but still decided to take a break and make two flower arrangements, one for the kitchen and one for the patio. Come on in for a little bit of this and that.
