welcome back

“the first day of spring is one thing, 

and the first spring day is another.” henry van dyke

oh how true! i am waiting with bated breath for that first spring day!

we have had a very cold and very quiet week

i think it was minus 13 yesterday....minus too much!

you can imagine what a delight it was to see the first robins! 

i believe they are the true harbingers of spring!




can farm equipment be beautiful? i think so!
oh la la...the repetition of lines, the graceful curves, the gentle swirls

i love how they look a little carefree and organic 

charming!

i so love the rust too!

i have just learned that today is #thankafarmerthursday! how sweet! 

this news came from olive who you must visit!

olive is a wonderful gal who writes so beautifully about food adventures in our area. 

she does a lovely job of honouring food artisans and local farmers who share her passion for excellence in food.

 i love her genuine interest in supporting these businesses.

warm farm hugs,

laura
