Breaking news: I saw one of the baby birds on my front deck this morning. I saw one yesterday on the shed roof but wasn’t quick enough to take a picture.

I started my day defrosting a few scones, cutting them in half, and drizzling them with icing. Of course I got a spot on my shirt that I didn’t notice until 2 hours later! But we were having a taste test at the tea meeting so I wanted to be ready.

Little pieces for a taste test.

After work I stopped at Shop and Save and did get a few Pepsi products on sale. That should really last a while. I was at the tea meeting right on time. There was a lot to discuss this time, as a few things need to get rearranged. Kelly offered to make little flower magnets in fall colors for the take-home favors so I took one with me. That was a resounding yes! Near the end of the meeting we did do a scone tasting – and they all decided it would be more fun as a ‘sweet’ than a scone. So we’ll revisit it again at the fall pre-tea meeting and decide then.

Once I got home, my friend Tamara called and we had a brain-storming session about plans for the Loyalhanna Review Publication party. Things are still up in the air with that – there are a few things we’d like to change, and this particular group doesn’t necessarily like change!

An older issue – one of my favorite covers.

After the phone call, I spent a few hours on the hill, digging and pulling weeds. I think one more sweep across the middle will finish that side.

Where you see stones is where I’m going to plant ground cover.
This is weeded.
This is weeded except one little section by the big rock on the left.
Bottom center still needs weeded and thinned out.

I forgot to mention that Shop and Save had my red/white/blue M&M’s. So now I’m set for the summer. I can’t believe that in the last few years they have gone from $8.00 a bag to $14.97! That’s why this bag will have to stretch until fall!
