More Green, Still No Spring [Daily Photo #392]
Today it snowed,
rained and then hailed, but despite this depressive anti-gardening
weather we went to buy seeds, bulbs, ground and other stuff.
Hopefully there will be… a warm summer one day? Haha…

Pruning [Daily Photo #391]
My husband pruned
aronia and hydrangea the other day, and I saved a few branches and
put them in water. Now they are happily unfolding beautiful baby
leaves indoors!

Birds [Daily Photo #384]
These swans
expressed zero interest in my food offerings. :(
But this lovely
duck came to me even before I showed the food! ^u^
I fed him very
well.

Wheat-Free Chocolate Banana Cake [Daily Photo #378]
Today I baked a
wheat-free cake for the first time in my life. It was quite an
interesting experience! I used this lovely recipe – banana,
chocolate, coffee, coconut flour, mmmmm. Additionally I decorated the
top with coconut flakes.

Moomin Chocolate Egg [Daily Photo #374]
Holidays like
Christmas and Palm Sunday are a great excuse to indulge in eating too
many sweets. Today we bought a few chocolate things in case the Easter witches come, and I even got a chocolate egg!

Maybe it's not the time for beach picnics and sunbaths yet but it sure is pleasant to see and hear waves again. :)

April Moss [Daily Photo #372]
I love watching
forests wake up in spring, little by little or in a big explosion of
life. First leaves, young pine and fir needles, drowsy bees and
flies… Today I took a short walk into the woods and found a boulder
covered in moss like a big fluffy hat.

Snowdrops Under Snow [Daily Photo #365]
Wow I've been doing this Daily Photo Challenge for a whole year non-stop! @o@ And I guess Nature wanted to celebrate it, too, with beautiful snow… Yep, just when I thought it was finally spring, more snow fell. I was a naive fool! Spring, right… But at least it created nice photo opportunities. : 3
