Happy Friday 4/16/21

Happy Friday! How are you? The sun’s been shining around here and the daffodils are blooming (!!!). Last fall I added some new bulbs to line our front walk and it’s been so fun to see them all come up. Daffodils are one of my favorites!

Sunshine on a stem, aren’t they?! (The varietal I’m holding in the first photo is called Replete.)
