Greta and I had a lovely afternoon outside.
I strung two more sections of clothesline and am so glad to have the extra space.



Greta discovered the wonders of the sandbox for the first time today. She played happily there for quite a while while I planted pumpkins. Sweet little thing! (Of course I gave her lots of kisses on her sandy face.)




I picked the first big bunch of my very own rhubarb ever. My plant is a division of a family plant at the farm and has taken a couple of years to get going. Greta and I made rhubard muffins for supper. Oh, I enjoy those.

{The crabapple trees are blooming in my town. We picked some yesterday to brighten the house for our family dinner, and now my whole house smells like the blossoms.}

What pretty pictures! I love hanging laundry - it smells so fresh! Greta looks adorable in the sandbox - what fun!
My Mom just gave me some of her rhubarb to use, as mine is still too small. I shall be busy making it into sweet treats this week! :)

Your muffins were fantastic, Kat. Thanks for letting me have one. :)

Oh, P.S.~
When I was over the last time this evening, (the time I talked to you) I did notice you had clothes hanging over by the sand box but it didn't register at the time that they were new clotheslines. How fun! They looked very homey and cozy.

I planted Johnny Jump Ups because of this post (right after you posted it), but mine never have been quite as full and luscious as yours! Thank you for inspiration.

Mine weren't the first year either, but they re-seed themselves now and spread everywhere! :)
