Rain overnight...44º

Looking ahead at the 10 day forecast, rain showers are predicted for the next week and a half...We need the rain, so hope the prediction is correct...Our outside world is clean and damp looking this morning.

Sunday was a fun relaxing day for my Mothers Day, both kids checked in early with love and good wishes and to remind me once again how blessed I am...Before breakfast (which Herb fixed) he loaded two wheelbarrow loads of mulched hay/manure for me to spread on the garden, building up the soil for our root veggies and cabbages, cucumbers, beans, peas, squash and tomatoes...This new rain will make it ready for planting...Late morning I mixed a batch of rolls for our dinner with Pat and Brian...We arrived there about 3pm where prime rib was cooking on the grill and potatoes in a dutch oven...We visited over a glass of wine and munchies with the smoky aroma wafting from the grill to whet our appetites...B & P always the ultimate hosts served us a lovely dinner at their cabin near the lake.

Back at home, relaxing and digesting, we had a surprise visit from John and Becky...They had taken Pam "mushroom hunting" for Mother Day and generously shared their bounty with us...On Monday we had another special dinner of prime rib/potatoes and sauteed morels.

Morels


An easy dinner.

Yesterday was a lazy Monday, although I did some deadheading and scattered a few chips...Then I spent time sorting all of my seed packets into a box for veggies and another for flowers...Cleaned out and threw away a bunch of stuff...With the light rain it should be a perfect time to scatter seeds and plant more of the garden...Hugs To All...OWAV:)
