Mid-May: no snow, no knitting | Writing from Scotland
https://christinelaennec.co.uk/2015/05/15/mid-may-no-snow-no-knitting

I rubbed my eyes and looked again. It was reality. There was a white garden out there, a spring garden lying under snow, quietly accepting its fate.” (A Garden in the Hills, p. 69). I’m happy to say that we do not have snow today! Cosmos and sweet peas after their first night outside. What have I done instead?

I feel in love for the third time when I saw Jonah. And we feel asleep peacefully. February 15, 2011 at 9:31 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
