Ketch-Up Tuesday

 

Did you celebrate Valentine's Day, and if so, how?

We had a good one. We went to Shelton Vineyard and had a delicious lunch.As we left we were given a rose and truffles and macaroons.   Oh my gosh, the macaroons where the best I've ever had. Usually, it's the sweet cream flavor that comes through but with these it was the coconut. I ordered flatbread pizza and soup. The HH got a burger and fries and the price was about what we spend on breakfast at our go-to breakfast establishment. Both reasonable and delicious.

Ketch-up Tuesday

 

How are you? 

This week is busy, busy, busy here.

Being from the Midwest, I'm always stunned to see daffies blooming in February. They are cropping up everyone and the robins are out in number. Spring has got to be right around the corner. Here's our first. Pretend you don't see the weeds that are cropping up as well.

And, of course, the Christmas/Lenten roses. (Helleborus)

AND

More snow in Colorado.

Thanks, Julie.

What's the weather like there?
