all the flowers are blooming. the trees are slower . . no leaves . . just tiny little buds appearing. but the flowers are big! it feels like late may or early june, not march. i keep thinking i should go see the roses at the botanic garden.
pansies and crocuses . .
daffy down dillies . .
hyacinth!! they seem to have multiplied . . we thought we had only planted two . . but there are five! 
maybe someone else planted bulbs unbeknownst to us?
chanda and i stopped at the hardware store for potting soil. i picked up crocuses and hyacinth for the windowsills yesterday . . but needed a few more terracotta pots . . and potting soil. they had the soil, but not the pots. i'm also looking for our own pansy plants . . but haven't seen any being sold at a local deli or supermarket. we bought seeds at the hardware store.
for dinner i was supposed to make a chicken . . but of course i forgot to pull it out of the freezer in time! so i perused my giada recipe book and decided to make a turkey meatloaf with feta cheese and sundried tomatoes, asparagus with melon, mozzarella and prosciutto, and buttered cream potatoes with parsley. chanda and i went out to the store for the ingredients and when i came home i unpacked . . looked at everything laying about on the counter and thought to myself, "oh no! now i have to put all of this together!" i don't know how or why i was so ambitious . . but dinner was delicious and there were only a few potatoes left.
