Spring Fever

The Hump Day Blog Hop
And it is just the end of January...sheesh!

I must admit this winter has been super cold in North (by God) Carolina and this is abnormal!  I am used to a few seventy degree days mixed in in January but this year...didn't happen!

Well guys I am giving up on snow and ready for blooming dogwoods (mine was removed in the great remodel of 2013) and blossoming bulbs.  I have decided to show off some pins I just love that have me amped up for spring 2014.

I love this because my favorite flower on the earth is the tulip.  The second reason I love this is the use of the white pitcher. That is just simple elegance.  Of course I have no where in my home that this would fit but it doesn't mean I cannot not love it!
OK little Pat I know you are hungry like a little spring bird.

Next up - if you know me know me then you know I love birds.  Like an old lady loves her daily shows and her cardinals I love birdies.  Spring means even more birdies on my feeders and more chickens in my coop.  I love it.

ranunculus. brilliantly colored flowers.  frost-hardy cool-season perennial bulbs. perform best where winters are relatively mild and springs are long and cool.  make terrific container plants everywhere else. make long-lasting cut flowers.

My second favorite flower I bought last year and went crazy over them - Ranunculus.  Ahhh they are amazing flowers and so brilliant.  I cannot wait to get more this year for my new deck!

Spring means fun fashion and breezy clothing (but add a top layer because we freeze in the morning and when the sun goes down.  I love this outfit!

All our friends know we are outdoors people.  With our new porch/deck whatever you want to call it I need something along these lines to hang up!

Drink good beer with good friends.

  1. I know! This weird winter is so out of character! From the flooding rains last summer to this cold frigid weather this winter...I'm sick of it. I'm ready for my hot, dry summers and mild winters! Where the eff did they go?

    Those ranunculus are beautiful! And that breezy summer top is right up my alley.
    Amen on getting your deck together for friends!
