Thank you, thank you, thank you!
I wish I had taken better photos of the sights and a longer look at the MFJ mosaics badge. The trencadis tiling on Gaudi's buildings was so inspirational. Maybe I should start a separate thread?
For today, I feel so blessed that the potted avocado tree and narcissus faired so well while we were gone. Our house sitter specialized in dogs, not plants-- Fallon told her our Rho was about to celebrate in golden birthday (14 on 2/14) and she threw him an early surprise birthday party.

Your pup is beautiful! And thanks for sharing your spring with those of us still covered in snow (or wondering where all their snow is) LOL! What a wonderful bouquet to come home to.
The other night I was feeling blessed and although the picture doesn't quite capture the feeling I think you might be able to see what I'm talking about. Just a wonderful, quiet, peace in an ordinary day:

| Great photo. The stars in the sky and the snow and the cute little babies eating. Great shot! |
Big Hugs,
Debbie

That sky! Amazing! I can also relate to the calf in the foreground, head deep in a bucket breakfast.
This morning I baked a batch of granola to go with instant pot 24 hour yogurt the MJF badges turned me onto. Do y'all have granola in your meal rotation? The smell of honey-coconut-toasted oats doesn't photograph well but the whole kitchen smells divine. |

| I love the smell of the house when I make granola. I found a recipe years ago that we love and I change it up from time to time. |

I think we're on the same page as Denise; granola is becoming a "kitchen sink" recipe. Start with a foundational recipe and then jazz it up but throwing in whatever dried fruit or nut we are trying to move through.
Wonderful to wake up to the patter of rain with the assurance of a roof over our heads today. Might be a good day to kick off a cosy "perpetual soup" to graze on, or maybe bake some bread. |

| Feeling blessed kid happily started into language arts curriculum this morning; I was starting to feel anxious we had lost our rhythm on academics after the trip. |

I am just getting caught up on here this morning. I love all of the pictures that you have shared! Blessings, indeed :)
Chris, do you have a big birthday planned for your pup this weekend?
Heather, do you still have your snow? I love the stars in your picture :) |

Chris,
I never felt the need to worry about jumping back into academics full force when we were homeschooling and had a big trip. Well big for the young ones. They got back into the groove fairly easy.
My blessing today is having lunch with my honey and our daughter today. She and I are shopping after.
I think we are having fake Spring this next week and a half. In the 40s and 50. Which is considerably warmer than it has been of late. For awhile there I was convinced we'd ever get out of the teens and below. We still have snow but I doubt there will be any by next weekend. |
