Five on Friday - Spring is Here!

Hello, Dear Friends! 

Is there any season that is more anticipated

than spring? 

I know that is particularly true for 

many of you this year! 

Today I am participating in a new 

meme, called Five on Friday

from Amy's blog, 'Love Made My Home'. 

I am so glad that spring is here, 

and I have been busy. 

Here are five things I have been working on. 

To begin, I have added some spring touches to my mantel. 

I still have to unpack my Easter decorations, 

so that is on my agenda this week. 

Another thing on my agenda is planting 

a kitchen garden! 

Mine will be tiny in galvanized tubs, 

but it is a start! 

I have radish, lettuce, kale, spinach, Swiss chard, 

and sweet peas. 

Every kitchen garden needs sweet peas, 

don't you think? 

I have been crocheting, too. 

This will be a tiny sweater for my 

first baby grandson, due in May. 

The yarn is Paton's Beehive Baby Sport, 

and is unbelievably soft. 

I crocheted the basket out of vintage calico strips. 

I am hosting Easter dinner this year, 

so I am browsing my cookbooks 

for recipes.

(Vineyard Seasons, by Susan Branch

and 

The Beatrix Potter Country Cookery Book

by Margaret Lane) 

I am also looking through my vintage linens

to use in my spring decorating. 

Last, but not least, 

I am planning a little getaway 

for my Ramblin' Man and me. 

Maybe just a day-trip, but someplace 

pretty and interesting to break up 

the routine. 

Maybe a picnic if the weather is nice! 

So that is my Five on Friday, 

what do you have going on? 

Won't you join in? 

xoxo
