Friday Bliss #187 - Sunny Easter!

For Easter I bought this season’s last tulips because soon they will not be available in shops.
They look so sunny with muscaris and make me think of spring.

Spring is nature’s way of saying, ‘Let’s Party!’
- Robin Williams

Spring is when you feel like whistling, even with a shoe full of slush.
- Doug Larson

If we had no winter, the spring would not be so pleasant.
- Anne Bradstreet

Fazer’s Mignon eggs are genuine egg shells filled with chocolate.

The founder of the company Karl Fazer began making this classic of the Finnish Easter tradition

in his factory as early as 1896. The handmade Mignon still tastes almost the same

as it was when it was born.

DIY idea: pretty small heart with a tete-a-tete bulb seen at a garden market.

Wishing a good & sunny Easter!

Friday Bliss #184 - Beautiful White Muscari

I had a pot of white muscaris and they were so beautiful!

Yet photographing was challenging: either there was too much light or too little.

In addition my kitten assistants were very eager to help me in my job.

I made a test and put the pot on the window sill - it took them a couple of seconds to find it

and I had to put the pot safe in my big lantern again.

The World Happiness Report 2022 says Finland came first for the fifth continuous year.
Looking at each country from 2018-2020, the report finds these 10 to be the happiest in the world:

Finland 🇫🇮

Denmark 🇩🇰

Switzerland 🇨🇭

Iceland 🇮🇸

Netherlands 🇳🇱

Norway 🇳🇴

Sweden 🇸🇪

Luxembourg 🇱🇺

New Zealand 🇳🇿

Austria 🇦🇹

That certainly is good news. And good news is also that my corona test was negative.

Nevertheless I have been sick for the whole week with this respiratory infection

with strong mucous cough, rasp throat and running nose. In order to lift my spirits

I have entertained myself with audiobooks about Alfie the cat. Wonderful books for every catlover!

Hope you are all well. Wishing a happy weekend for you all!

Frühlingsglück am Ostern

Eigentlich weiss ich nicht ob mein Titel korrekt geschrieben ist: an Ostern oder am Ostern...
Präpositionen sind so schwer auf deutsch. Besser auf englisch schreiben!

At the moment the garden and the nature look still very bare,
only Salix caprea is beautiful & filled with blooms!
I have one big Salix caprea in my garden and there are many in the neighbourhood.
