I finally couldn’t stand it any longer. With temperatures above 50℉ the past two days, it was time to get into the garden. I needed some of the wire cages to protect the tulips poking up through mud, before the does destroyed them. The cages were stored in the back shed, so I had to brave a snow field to get to them.


The first few steps were easy: snow crusty enough to hold my weight. Then I punched through. Little Wren danced around on top of the crust the whole time. So did Topaz. It was a long way to the shed and it was rough on my knees and my back. I found a shorter way out, after dropping the cages over the back fence where I could get to them easily from outside. Then I crawled over the crust for twenty feet til I got up next to the raised beds, where reflected heat had melted a narrow path. It was fun, crawling over the snow, and doubled as icing on my knees.

Saw the title and was hoping for a magic wand related to cash flow… but the bread looks good, dinner if not dinero, eh?…
Aloha Rita. Yummy, my great grandma made fresh bread. I loved and will always remember the homey senses of bread baking. I 💜💜💜 your doggie! And yes, protect the tulips 💜🌷💐💜.
