Friday Bliss #31 - Back Winter



My joy of spring start was premature. Last week we had wonderful & warm weather,
and I was out for hours... But this week the winter came back, as it often does.
In Finnish this phenomenon has a specific word: TAKATALVI - meaning recurring wintry weather, literally back winter. It has been chilly, windy and we got new wet snow.
I have had no desire for garden work... I am not that eager.
From Palm Sunday on it’s forecast warmer weather again - we’ll see!

Outside nothing grows yet, so I went to a garden center to admire flowers & green!






We have in Finland Parliamentary election on Sunday. MPs are elected for four years.
Going to be exciting as always.

 Wishing you a beautiful Palm Sunday!

  7. Riitta - I can relate to your "backwinter". Here, it seems we are having three seasons in one day! You are very clever to go to the garden center for a shot of spring; the flowers are lovely and the ceramic chicken made me giggle. Thanks for hosting Friday Bliss, and a happy Palm Sunday to you as well. Easter is almost here!

  14. Lovely nursery garden flowers, Riitta. After a couple of warm weeks, we are now experiencing cooler days, but it's still very springlike. Rain and sun are good for the flowers and gardens. Happy weekend, and I hope the elections go well. Palm Sunday blessings to you.
