Chickens ~ Flower Gardens and what not.....

The ladies (chickens) are laying exhaustingly awesome right now.   I have 2 (not just 1) dozen in the fridge to boil in a week or so.  So excited to be blessed with so many eggs right now.

We are adding several perennials to the flower beds this spring.  I have had them in the garage until the snow and freeze was finished.  I know there may be a chance for frost, but with the 80°F days, and rain, I put them all outside.  




I don't have very many tulips, but they are blooming.  I'm planting more bulbs this fall. 



Look at the size of the dandelions!  I will be doing something before my husband mows again.



My husband was tickled pink to see I made strawberry crisp.  I need to rotate out some strawberries before strawberry season gets here.  The recipe is online with Belle of the Kitchen.  I use thawed frozen strawberries and adapted the recipe with organic ingredients.  I do have to bake it a bit longer using the thawed strawberries (more liquid from frozen).

  4. Thanks Lisa, yes we have loads of dandelions this spring. I typically make a bread. I've made jelly, but prefer the taste of wild violet better. Have a great week.
