Spring Has Arrived!!

I was able to plant and put out all our flowers, fruits, and herbs yesterday:) Last year we had a little rose and some strawberries. Here's what we have this year:

 There's a dove nesting on our downspout:)

Red, purple, pink, and yellow primrose:)

 This is my favorite: Chocolate Mint:) I'm excited to dry leaves to make tea:D

The rose bush is getting very tall and is sprouting new leaves all over.

Jack keeping a weary eye on things.

We inherited some daffodils from Dave and Fran, which have already bloomed. But there's a stow-away morning glory working it's way up the stems.

And, of course, the strawberries are back:)

There's also an african violet that I'm proud not to have killed yet, but I forgot to take it's picture:P I'm excited that everything is blooming because it means we're getting closer and closer to summer and warm weather. I'm really hoping to be able to plant these plants in my yard (which I don't have yet) either this summer or next:)

An Easy Cover for that Kindle

I got bored last weekend and popped out a new cover for my Kindle:) Super easy! I'm working on another one right now, so I'll post a tutorial soon. I think at least one sewing project per season justifies having a sewing machine and all the bells and whistles that go along with it...Although I know Tim would be happier if it spent less time on the kitchen table:P

See? Looks really easy:)

It was a snug, perfect fit. Which made me really happy because we all know I suck at Math and patience.

Side view; not too bulky.

Back view. Kinda boring, but you get the idea.

Things that turn out this well make me really happy. Because, lets face it, domestic goddess I am not!
