only took seven minutes to shovel the front sidewalk and a path to the driveway…
didn’t need to shovel to the neighbours as Canada Post isn’t coming right now…
a nice start to the season, the snow was light and fluffy and there wasn’t too much of it ;-)…

a few fun surprises today…
when I looked out the window first thing this morning the sky seemed fluffy as it was filled with cute little clouds…
a bit later, as I was walking around the living and dining rooms, I spotted this tiny morning glory;-)…
and the purple hyacinths have started to scent the air… I get the lovely perfume as I walk into the kitchen or living room…
all very lovely as it was overcast and not very energizing…
and it snowed again, sigh…

yesterday I finally got around to making rhubarb scones…
I’ve had the recipe for a few weeks but it has been too hot to make them…
I was especially interested as the recipe used canola oil instead of butter… I wondered if they would end up being dense and heavy, but they turned out light and fluffy and very tasty…
they may have been the best scones I’ve made;-)…
and were delicious warm with pro-activ on them… I think they would also be great with warm cheese on them;-)…

≈ Comments Off on fluffy…
yesterday there was fresh fluffy snow covering the ground… it also dusted the wreath at the front door…
the sidewalk always looks so beautiful under a fresh snowfall… more so if you don’t need to walk out there…
this morning the icicles were shining in the sunlight as I left the house and then a bit later I spotted this deer as I was out and about…
the sun shining all day was a wonderful bonus;-)…

sunshine and clouds…
Saturday the sun was shining down on the planters in the front yard and there were diamonds glittering… lovely dome of snow, which reminded me of a giant ice cream cone…
a bit later I caught this sundog… not very big but always such fun to spot… as I was driving downtown this morning there was a huge one, but I couldn’t stop to take a photo…
Sunday the clouds were very fluffy as I took this picture…

tonight I made scrambled eggs for my dinner…
made me think of my dad…
he always used a fork to work the eggs in the frying pan… he would have been using a pan that didn’t have coating so the metal fork would have been fine, lol…
he felt that the fork made the eggs more light and fluffy…
I use a spatula, usually a purple one…
always interesting what we remember, isn’t it…
