After a mixed bag of a weekend, here I find myself back at another Monday - where is the time going? It's nearly April but I'm having trouble believing we are out of Feburary yet. The weather was gloriously spring-like on Saturday and today we're being warned about snow again, possibly for the whole week ahead I feel very mixed up. Really I ought to migrate every year, just follow the sun; birds may have small brains but I think they've got to be the most savvy little creatures out there.
Here are my most beautiful 'Bloomin Monday' flowers yet (in my opinion). A deep firey red Tulip with a cream/yellow, slighty ruffled edge and the darkest purple stamens - Fab. This photo doesn't do them justice, I'll maybe change it later...

Carrie, those tulips are absolutely stunning. Beautiful photo! And congrats on the guest post too!
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear you're feeling well Carrie. Did you enjoy the zoo? I'm going on Thursday (to Belfast zoo) when i'm home for Easter, it will be Miriam's first trip to a zoo so I hope she enjoys it! Lsuran x
ReplyDeleteThe tulips are beautiful, I love the colours. I couldn't read your guest post, I'm not sure if the link is wrong.
ReplyDeleteCurbstone Valley - thanks! xxx rather pleased with myself.
ReplyDeleteLauran - why do you bring the bad weather home with you??! The Zoo is fab, all done up last year.

ReplyDeleteYour link works fine now, Carrie, glad I got to read your guest post. You must be excited to be going to Malvern, I know I would be. Hope you have a great time.
ReplyDeleteLook forward to meeting you at Malvern, Carrie. Glad you made it to the zoo!
ReplyDeleteyes, I'd like to migrate with you. Early spring is so fickle, teasing us with warmth only to freeze over a few last times. sigh. onward!
ReplyDeleteI seriously doubt the photo doesn't do that tulip justice. She's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI do understand about the weird weather. We're having it, too, and it can be depressing. Altho today, for the first time, I had hope that a real, warm spring is here. Off to read your Malvern post now, Carrie. :)
Hi Carrie - just popping by to say Happy Easter - Hope you're having a good day - xxx
