Spring has sprung...

Emerging out of the winter suddenly we are surrounded by daffodils and the sound of newborn lambs calling for their mothers. Sounds rather cheesy but I am not sure I have ever been so relieved to see spring alive. Living in a rural area the seasons seem to jump out at me so much more than when living in the city... there have even been a few days when our fire has not been lit.

Further evidence of spring is that we once again have vases of flowers appearing on our doorstep. Our very sweet neighbour is a keen gardener and kept us well supplied in flowers last summer also!

We have spent the last couple of weekends weeding, mowing lawns and planting seeds for the summer garden. We are currently eating broccoli, leeks and silverbeet from the winter garden and the cabbages and cauliflowers are not too far away.
