One of the things about the change of the season is that I get very domestic. I just want to do things like bake bread, wash windows, and make things tidy. Today, when Bronwyn gets home from school, we're going to go for a bike ride and then it's to the garden to plant our peas and lettuces. I soak the peas overnight in water to help the sprout break through the outer shell more easily. Aren't they so pretty in the jar? The green peas are the sugar snap variety, and the brown peas are a fragrant, climbing flowering variety.
I can't wait to get my clothesline fixed! I plan to place it next to the blooming peas so that I can start bringing the blossom-filled sunshin-ey air into my home. Maybe this weekend my sweet husband will help me out in this regard.

I LOVE sugar snap peas and I'm jealous that your weather is nice. We still had snow this weekend!
I understand you - I cant wait to buy new plants for my balcony, so that it will have flowers and basilico and rosemary etc...
I know many people are still in the throes of winter and have snow. But maybe you won't suffer a drought this summer(snow=water). This comforts me when I feel like we're having too much dreary rain (much of the year!).
I've gotta have a glass half full to live in the grey rainy Pacific Northwest! It makes the sun all that much more welcome.
I hope you get your washing line mended! What a good ide with your peas, I will share it with my husband as we haven't planted our peas yet
: )
Colleen, you have a way of making everything special and beautiful... what a gift, and always inspiring.
The peas set soaking in the sun, are simply lovely. xo
(hope hubby got that clothes line fixed and up!)
Thank-You so much, Victoria. That comment just made my day. Hubby is working on the clothesline at this very moment!
