The posts are attatched and painted!
They're on their way to the allotment next week!
The new earrings created after that fun trip to the Quilt Craft Fair!

Time to use your imagination!
And that works better from a distance!
Lilac, one of my "Best of Spring" things
has its roots in a new place at Buitenzorg!
With compost rich ground and lots of rain
this weekend I hope it has a growing chance!
Looking forward to the flowers and smell!

Big Yellow Taxi!
There is a Garage on the way to Soest that
deals mostly in older "American" style cars!
Then I had that song in my head for a while!
Creating something for the veg patch!
Plus a bit of paint.
Then stencilling.
Added a few details.
The rest will come tomorrow!

Has been a wee bit cold the last few days!
Stopped by Vaarderhoogt Garden Centre.
They're getting ready for the growing season!
If you go down to the Action today
You're in for a big surprise!
3D placemats!
Photo's don't let you see the right effect!
But how do they really make them, and so thin ?
Are they weather/water proof?
Good for outside as a picture on the wall?
What happens if one cuts them up to make ...?
Over at Buitenzorg the Totempole
is weathering nicely!

A cold blue sky day! Perfect for taking picts of Snow Drops!
Sometimes you have to get close to see what's hiding!

Tulips !
I stopped by the health food store for local Honey
and left with a jar of Sunflower spread too!
Will have to Google this!

Busy at the allotment today.
The neighbour had a lot of extra dirt from their garden
at home that they were getting rid of! Much appreciated!
Then a bit of weeding.
I think that these are Forget Me Nots.
I left a few in to see!
Weeded, spitted and then the allotment was ready!
Maybe there will be grapes this year!
We can fill Grape Leaves this summer!


At the beginning, the very first day, there was this!
A year ago, Winter Rye waiting to be rotatilled in.
Today!
Let's see what this year brings!
Look what I found at Ikea!
Fun Fun Fun !

Spent a few hours at the allotment this week!
A cool misty morning
Some areas are dry enough to work!
Others are not!
But there is colour!


Walked along the other main path at the allotments
to see what other gardeners are up to!
This will be a nice window with a view!
Then there is this creative allotment!
Will have to intrduce myself next time I see them.
I wonder what this will be?
