Its almost the end of the month already, where did April go? Anyway it has been a gorgeous weekend here and we made the most of it with a family barbecue, lots of chocolate eating and walks along the beach. I still had time though to gather some blue bells from the garden for Jane's, over at smallbutcharming, in the house flowers link up part today. Jane was my very first follower and I must say has been kind and supportive throughout my first couple of months finding my feet within blog land.
My garden is full of blue bells at the moment in fact every year I bring in as many as I can to prevent them spreading.
sweet! those cakes look gorgeous!

I love the bluebells. They look lavender to me.I love that color.
ReplyDeleteWe too have masses of bluebells, and I pick them. Shall be putting a pic on my blog later, but I gathered a few, plus a tiny tulip and some lily of the valley and put them in a very small, three inch high jug, to photograph them. I also gathered some with a couple of red anemones, the contrast in the colours is lovely... come to think of it, if I had put lily of the valley in there, how patriotic would that have been?!
ReplyDeleteHi Deborah, love the blubells, such a novelty for an Aussie...and the cakes look amazing! I'm going to link up with Jane..looks like fun! Have a lovely day.Robx
ReplyDeletePerfect!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. I wish I had bluebells here. I have the same billy can, it was my dad's and I brought it back with me from the UK this past visit. Happy Easter Monday. Lx
ReplyDeleteMorning Deb, well it's morning to me.
ReplyDeleteI love your bluebells. I'll have to put them on my wish list of bulbs to plant.
I still remember how amazing it was to visit your blog the first time. You haven't needed much help finding your way, you arrived, out of nowhere with both feet firmly planted on this amazingly beautiful blog.
Yummy looking cupcakes too.

So simple, and so beautiful. I adore the single anemone on the white bowl and the little cupcakes are charming. Have a lovely day, love Linda x
ReplyDeleteThe bluebells in the enamel jug are perfection to me. Unfussy, confident, utterly enchanting. Sometimes less is more if you really know what you are doing with the less!!xxx
ReplyDeleteI would have eaten the violas. The cakes are so very lovley
ReplyDeleteWe have been seeing lot of the UK this week due to the wedding and the weather looks dreamy.
So glad you had an enjoyable family Easter. It hasn't stopped raining here. The garden is loving it though.

Hi lovely,
ReplyDeleteI'd love some bluebells in our garden!!! They look so beautiful. I've had difficulties with anemones, you know. We have a quite a few in our garden but if I try and transplant any then they die on me. :-( Not good!!
