it's been storming a lot recently...

But at least the lilacs and violets are happy!

There was also a double rainbow a while ago. :3

I've also been preparing to start a garden for the first time, pretty excited about it! I've got some fence container-things set up in my backyard, filled with fresh potting soil and some seeds ready. I've been talking to a coworker about it; apparently, tomatoes, cucumbers, and green beans are good starter plants that basically grow themselves. I also have a pack of red strawberry popcorn that I bought on a whim a year or so ago that I'm hoping will still be viable.

Beautiful photos!

Very exciting! Sounds like you are all set, and that you aren't trying to do too much, which is good. If you are planting any kind of corn, remember to plant them in a square not a line!

Oh, so pretty. Lilacs are a fave of mine!

Vioets and lilacs! Two of my spring favorites.

Oooh, I've never heard of strawberry popcorn. Please let us know how your garden grows!

Yay, violets and lilacs!

Fun fact: both flowers are edible. Lilac liqueur is very pretty for the time it holds the flower color (plus delicious even after).

We've been getting a lot of storms too -- at least the rainbow and rain were a plus!
