Monday, Monday and temperatures are rising. Hope your beginning of the week is off to a great start! ❤️
Sometimes I have to share this view just to remind myself that I was really there! Hopefully, some day soon, we will all be able to resume our travels! Until then, stay safe.
The blooms on the flowering pears are now gone. However, we are enjoying some wonderfully coolish weather for mid May. I will definitely take it, as I know our long, hot summers are just around the corner! Here’s to Friday and days well spent!
One of the most beautiful places I’ve had the privilege to visit! The island of Sao Miguel, the largest island of The Azores archipelago, located in the Atlantic, off the coast of Portugal. I was amazed by the gorgeous hydrangeas growing along the road as we traveled to visit this crater lake in the center of the island. Such a truly gorgeous spot!
“Life is too short. Buy the Hydrangea.” I found this quote on twowomenandahoe.com and it just resonated with me. I love hydrangeas, but have always had trouble keeping them. This year I discovered cutting the stem at a 45 degree angle under warm running water. It worked! I was also diligent about refreshing the water and spritzing the petals. My store bought hydrangeas stayed fresh for over a week!
No blue skies here today. It’s cloudy and grey. So I’m remembering the beauty of the Flowering Pears when they were at their peak. Such a lovely sign that Spring is on its way. Hope you’re experiencing blue skies and sunshine today, but wherever you are, stay safe and enjoy! 💙
Hello April! I’m so happy to see the beautiful blue skies and these perfect temperatures! Looking forward to more blooms as our garden slowly returns!
I had the opportunity to visit the @arringtonvineyards last summer located outside of Nashville. It was such a lovely, tranquil spot. Such a delightful atmosphere to relax and enjoy with family and friends!
