In thinking back, I think I was cleaning out eggs mostly for baking projects, just one or two at a time. Because you're right, the egg stuff doesn't just fall out of the egg shells.<br /><br />I love crocuses, too. I've planted a lot over the years. The squirrels also love crocuses, so I've had to replant those many times. But I'll keep doing it because they are the first flower that we get en masse. Very soon . . .Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-18217459895297672082021-03-01T08:33:24.901-08:002021-03-01T08:33:24.901-08:00Hi Kris,

I'v...Hi Kris,<br />More of a concept -- I like that!<br />I've been taking walks in the neighborhood looking for inspiration for outdoor spring decor. I'll post some photos this week of what I've found so far. Some of the ideas are very do-able and inexpensive. I don't know if your porch is covered, but you could add a pot of faux flowers from some (cheap) place like Dollar Tree near the door where you go in and out. Or just add stems of faux flowers into your greenery, taking out anything that screams Christmas. I do think these sort of things are mood boosters.Lilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13292553654219380455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-2396083669662107272021-03-01T05:41:40.316-08:002021-03-01T05:41:40.316-08:00I remember those eggs and think they are very pret...I remember those eggs and think they are very pretty. I like the natural look. I remember blowing out eggs as a kid and it was not easy. I'm getting lighted-headed just thinking about it.<br /><br />Many things say spring to me, but the definitive one is crocuses blooming. After I figured out that there were not any crocus in the yard at this house, that's one of the first things I planted. So far this year, all I can see are the tips of the leaves emerging from the ground, but they will be coming soon enough.Live and Learnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493777474885053903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055690688282230469.post-65445217714801080692021-03-01T04:36:53.714-08:002021-03-01T04:36:53.714-08:00Longer daylight hours, flowers from bulbs peeking ...Longer daylight hours, flowers from bulbs peeking up, hearing more birds, and sunshine make me feel like spring is getting close. Spring is more of a concept than anything else in Michigan--it can seem springlike one day and winter the next. I will start to put out a few spring decor items (mostly Easter-themed, but I do like to switch out my silk flowers to more springlike ones). I'm getting tired of looking at my winter-themed front porch (sled, greenery) and in the past I've just removed it and waited till May when it's time to plant flowers in pots, but this year I'm thinking about inexpensive ways to switch it up to brighten the area and boost my mood. Any ideas? Krisnoreply@blogger.com
