BEAUTY IS A LIFESTYLE THING

I put my cushions on my patio chairs after we had a string of temperatures above our normal temps. of course I became Spring feverish! I know you did too. I even heard a motorcycle in the background and knew the warmth of Spring was near! I really did enjoy this cup of tea outside and it was 70 degrees, But the great Midwest and Mother nature has other ideas. While all the while my little bulbs are starting to burst all over. Spring Flowers! When the flowers begin filling in, it's just a gorgeous show. This winter however, we have found diggings, bulbs pulled out and mulch strewn about! We have found we have many furry friends like the voracious vole,the sneaky squirrels, and the big bellied bunnies who all have had a meal or two in our fine outdoor restaurant. Anyway, this Fall I have to replant the majority of my Tulips, the Tulips must be the preferred feast. So now that it's back in the 20's and the 30's, I've ditched the outdoor grill for making and baking in

I thought it was important to share this. I know that in the last two weeks, you may have asked yourself this question. What can I do? For this posting today I put these nice sized (16 x 20") posters in my window. This was at the very least I could do, so in the next subsequent days I will be working with one of my blogging reps. to post more information and places to donate to Ukraine and to help with donations. I'm hoping that maybe you've asked what can I do as well. I'll provide a list of places so that if you do desire to donate you can, or if you just want to pass the post along to a friend you can do that too. Sunflowers have become synonomous with Ukraine and with peace. This acrylic painting above I did this past August when I was feeling especially creative, I hope you love it as much as I do and I thought it was perfect for this post. Have a superior day and look for my upcoming posts on places to donate. Let's all pray and share the message of hope
