Warm Wednesday Morning

It is a beautiful morning at this little place here.  Temperatures were in the sixties yesterday after thunderstorms on Monday night.  Things are turning green; plants pushing up through the soil.

I grabbed the camera and headed out for a lap around the house to see what's growing.

Behind the house, which would be the east side:

tulips pushing up near the sidewalk

buds on the lilac bush swelling and showing the green beginnings of leaves

chives
 (Note to self: those baked potatoes on the menu for later this week?  Use fresh chives on them.)

garlic planted last fall is looking good

daffodils


rhubarb just beginning to sprout


spearmint


iris

On the south side of the house:

daffodils are ready to bloom

The front of the house (west side):

dandelion!! 
Tasty when young and nutritious, will sneak this into the menu somehow.
(When life gives you lemons, and all that. . .)

crocus that will probably be wide open this afternoon

patch of tulips near front walkway
