Hope you had a Happy St. Patty’s Day! Ours was filled with the standards (i.e. cabbage) and lots of green…
Green watering can…
Green shirts and green hats…
Shamrocks…
Green plants (kalanchoe, aloe and a few jade starts are pictured here in a little green pot)…
Lots of little green seedlings…
and…
Green bowls of green ice cream with green sprinkles!
The green has continued beyond St. Patty’s and we’ve noticed tiny emerald buds on some trees and the grass is slowly changing color.
The Spy in (the neighbor’s) field of soon-to-be-green grass.
Incoming!
Good practice for pitching.
Baseball is the Spy’s favorite thing about spring! In the garden…
The garlic is looking good.
It is planted in a big spiral shape in this plot.
The garlic spiral is an homage to Robert Smithson, but also to echo the whirly, twirly garlic scapes!
Stay off the earth sculpture!
The garlic and other things popping up at the moment are hardy and can take a bit of puppy paw-pounding. However, I fear for the tiny seedlings to come! Maybe we can dissuade them with…
Dog treats?
Baby debating whether to sample these herself or…
give them to the dogs!
Having not much to do with the yard and garden and things turning green, but perhaps relating to folks who head south to “spring break”, a painting by Baby:
Watercolor, by Baby
Quite bright and beachy…I spy waves, a flounder (or horseshoe crab?) and two petrified shark’s teeth.
Detail (shark’s tooth)
Petrified Shark Tooth
I love how you guys celebrate EVERYTHING! :) I also love that fossilised sharks tooth SCORE!
lol woo! It’s Saturday. CELEBRATE hahahah We have loads of fossilized sharks teeth (I am from the west coast of south FL where you can find them on the beach!) Glad I was able to feature them in a post haha
A very enjoyable post! Love Baby’s watercolor. Never heard of green ice cream before, do you make it yourself?
Green food coloring mixed with vanilla (yes I made it:) thanks, I love the watercolor too!
