Lots of buds.
We recently visited Green Acres, a nursery. We picked up 4 Spring Bouquet Viburnum plants to help fill in our privacy hedge.
It is getting ready to flower.
The rosemary is in bloom. I just trimmed back a section out by our round table.
My husband was trimming the wisteria. I already trimmed the Creeping Fig by our pool waterfall. Every year, I climb inside and hack back the growth taking over the waterfall.
More trimming is needed, however it's too cold to wade in there and trim the Creeping Fig.
Since we had a lot of lemons, I have been making lots of things with lemons. Caesar Chicken salad, Salmon en Papillote, lemon cupcakes, etc.
The Salmon en Papillote was made with orzo, black olives, tomatoes, lemon juice and pesto. The salmon fillets sit on a bed of cooked orzo and baked in parchment paper. The broccoli was made using my timbale recipe.
My husband and I received our first Covid vaccine. We both just experienced a sore arm. We go back in 3 weeks for the second shot.

Oh, how I love each and every sign of Spring, Linda! I use lemons daily, wish I grow them! Your salmon looks delish! We got our second COVID vaccines this morning. So far so good!
ReplyDeleteI always love reading your blog, Linda. Your food makes me hungry most times! My husband and I both got our 1st vaccine. He goes back on the 28th and I am on the 1st. Glad to hear you're well!
ReplyDeleteLove seeing your fur babies!
ReplyDeleteYour garden is so pretty! I'm happy that y'all did well with the vaccine. My husband was pretty sick from the first one for about 24 hours, then he was fine. I probably won't get it due to allergies.
ReplyDeleteYour yard is beautiful! Love the flamingos! Stopping by from Colorado, laura
ReplyDeleteLinda the fur babies are cute in their winter gear. Happy Friday. Have a great weekend.

Thanks Kris, I love here adorable sweaters. Xoxo
DeleteI love the garden statuary with the young and old faces (spring and winter?)
ReplyDeleteThank you Debra. The faces are north, west, south and east.
DeleteWell it looks like paradise..thank goodness I still like winter and it's winter white beauty in the country or I would be almost devastated with envy:)
ReplyDeleteI think the whole country is winter weary so your garden photos are a breath of needed fresh air! I'm glad you're enjoying all those lemons, wonderful way to brighten and lighten everything. I can't wait until it's swimming season again, and the flamingos are wonderful by your pool. The sweater pups are adorable!
ReplyDeleteThe pups look adorable in their matching sweaters.
ReplyDeleteI look forward to seeing your beautiful gardens each spring.

I always love seeing your gardens! Looks like there's a lot of new life there. Love the waterfall, such a nice affect. I like how the vine is attaching to the big rocks. Dante and Bella are so cute with their little sweaters on!
ReplyDeleteYou have the cutest dogs wearing matching sweaters. I can't believe how much Bella has grown. It's so nice to see your property with pretty flowers and I love that gorgeous statue. Congrats on getting your first shot and good luck with the second shot. I can't wait for when we get our shots! Hope you have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteFun to see your garden pics! Just in for lunch, with our spring like weather we are outdoors all day long, did you see 70 on Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteYes, such a beautiful day. I great day to work in the gardens.
DeleteLinda, como alegra ver como nace la primavera, tienes un jardÃn precioso con unos parterres de flores deliciosos, ¡qué alegrÃa cuando todo vuelva a brotar!, eso nos animará de este invierno tan triste. ¡Ole por tus dos perros son una monada con sus vestiditos de cuadros!. Besos
