Fold in berries
Bake in prepared pan

Lilacs
Both purple and white lilacs grow on our property.
And, on the other side of our fence and along the ditch there is a beautiful lilac tree in full bloom.
I guess that one is for the 'walkers' that pass by the mouse-house every morning.
Must be a pretty funny dream, Audrey. Haha! ;-)
I've been adding more flowers around the front because...well, I just can't stop.
The pansies look so pretty in all the different colours.
I have just one more to plant and a few more other flowers to pot up.
The grass seed should soon take and hopefully we'll have fresh new grass to cut.
I'm in good company here. :)

Enjoy your gardens.
Enjoy your Spring.

The blueberry loaf looks so yummy! Thanks for the recipe. I LOVE Audrey's picture.Well captured. (What will she say when she sees this on your blog?
ReplyDeleteyour yard looks so nice! I want some of those angel wing begonias, Phyllis
ReplyDeleteWell there's two of my favorites--blueberries & Lilacs! I will definitely be baking this loaf, but do I have to share??? XOXO
ReplyDeleteHeehee, Audrey! Your photo of the bowl of lilacs is good enough to make me believe I can smell them! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the recipe! Can't wait to try it.
ReplyDeleteThis is the weather for it here - May 21 and we're sitting around in sweatshirts and socks. This would be more bearable if we hadn't already had an entire week of 80+ degree weather.
That loaf looks delicious! St. Francis is a good touch for a garden.
ReplyDeleteDeb, I love lilacs. The aroma is just so heavenly. I hope I have a bush soon. Mine is a little twig right now. Thanks for the recipe. It sounds good and I think I will try it this weekend.
ReplyDeleteSt Francis is.. so dear to me ♥

Looks so beautiful! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteAnd isn't that a cute photo of laughting Aurdrey! lol

What wonderful photos! You look divinely happy and your property is beautiful. I am copying that blueberry bread recipe. I need to make some tea breads for -- what else -- a tea I'm co-hosting next week and this will be a perfect contrast to the lemon bread! Lovely!
ReplyDeleteWhen spring finally arrives .. it arrives in all its flowery glory! Wonderful. Wonder what Audrey is dreaming about???!!!! Maybe we don't want to know! :D :D
ReplyDeleteHugs and purrrrs.....
Love it ~ "being stalked by a retired guy " !
ReplyDeleteYour place already looks like a lush & blooming retreat complete with bird sanctuary, fresh baked goods from a very sweet cottage and a happy dreaming cat. Life is good !
That blueberry bread looks so good =)
ReplyDeleteEar scritches to the dreaming Audrey girl!
Things are looking so spring-like at your place!
ReplyDeleteThat picture of the lilacs should be enlarged and framed. Or better yet, someone should paint a watercolor for you. Wish I could paint!
And the picture of you wins the best portrait prize. Sorry, Audrey, Deb's more photogenic this time around.
Thanks for putting up the recipe for your blueberry loaf. Looks delicious! The lilacs have been so beautiful this spring. Audrey adorable as always!
ReplyDeleteLooks lovely, Deb. We just planted some purple lilacs, so hopefully in my lifetime I'll see them grow into a nice bush. Your landscaping around your well looks nice and calming.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of Audrey giving a grin. Mine do that too. Wish I knew what they were thinking.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the recipe and the beautiful lilacs.
Happy weekend!
