Apple blossom.

Hello Friends,

This long weekend we tried to relax and not watch the news too much, but we are worried for our son and grandchildren in the Middle East, we prayed for them on Easter Day. We will see what happens tomorrow.

On Saturday, we went to order our wood stove for our fireplace it will be installed on the 21 th of May, then another AC downstairs during May.

Today, we went in the garden , I tried to work a little . The weather was nice and sunny 🌞 but not on Easter Day!

I will be busy this coming week . I wish you a happy new week.

This flowers are from my small apple tree. Aren’t they beautiful?

 

Happy Easter!🐣

Fool’s day 1rst of April.

Hello Friends,

The first page is a drawing I did when I was 19 

Taken from   The other Edith Holden book

I was staying with a family in England and this is where I discovered the book.

I added little shrinking plastic poppies, butterflies…

Today is the 1rst of April it is fool’s day here. When I was a child I would draw a fish form on paper cut it put a piece of tape and you put it on the back of someone who would carry it all  day! ( my father! Of course!)

We are dangerously approaching my 70’s Birthday and Maxime’s 4th Birthday ( I would rather be 4 again! 😂 

Have a nice day!

 

Easter time .

Egg custard with air fryer 

Hello friends!

Today, I decided to share with you my Easter 🐣 preparations. I will soon bake my Easter Lamb 🐑 

I bought from Germany a few years ago.

Here on Easter the tradition  is to have lamb for lunch but we are not eating it in our family we rather have other dishes!

I did a little decoration on the mantel.

It will be a busy week for me, so in case I have not the time, I wish you a Happy Easter !

Would it be a peaceful time.

 

This and that…

Little bag to go with it.

Hello Friends!

 This weekend has been busy. We had our daughter and husband Saturday evening and had a Birthday supper for our SIL, then they stayed for the night had breakfast before the beginning of the race.

Our daughter did better than last year and 12 of her friends  have participated . After the race she had a shower and they went to have a brunch together in a restaurant.

On Saturday we decided to to go out to my friend shop

And I found this granny square cardigan to wear with my navy blue linen dress.

This week will be a busy one as I have many appointments. I am anticipating the problems that we are going to have to get gasoline and oil for our  boiler.

I am also preparing in case our son and family arrive these coming days or weeks.

We decided that we are not going out anymore during the weekend for the moment we will continue our house cleaning and tidying and then clean the garden instead!

I hope we “ALL” have better days!

A busy week-end.

Hi friends!

Today is Friday, end of the week and tonight begins the weekend!

Yesterday I met the heating engineer and I decided to to install a new AC downstairs and had a look for this kind of stove installed in our fireplace.

We will be busy with the Birthday this Saturday and our daughter’s run on Sunday. I hope there won’t be any rain…

So I wish you a good weekend with these nice Spring pictures

New works scheduled in the house

Hello Friends!

Hum! Croissants! 🥐 so good for breakfast!

This morning as usual we woke up and watched the news.

Then I had an appointment with the heating engineer 

We decided to install a new AC downstairs and a stove  in the fire place  to save oil from our boiler.

Now Nono the robot is back to work after the storm mister L has collected the branches on the grass after the storm.

Yesterday I baked a lemon cake and a rice pudding. I ended to cook my Carbonade in the Crockpot.

In the afternoon I started a new watercolour.

Then prepared supper.

This afternoon I must prepare our daughter’s room for Saturday night and think about the Birthday cake 🎂 I must order for Saturday.

Here we are back to cold with some cold air coming from the North Pole! Two weeks ago we all had to clean our cars covered with sand from the Sahara!

Now I have better go and work, I’ll visit blogs during my pauses!
