What We’re Eating This April!

Hello sweet friends. Welcome back to Shoestring Elegance and to the Thursday Favorite Things party!  I hope you all enjoyed a beautiful Easter weekend. I am, ecstatically, enjoying some April showers. As you may have guessed RAIN is always a good thing and a blessing here in California. I’m still working on my garden, though, albeit with my seedlings inside for now. There is something so miraculous about watching a seed sprout and grow, with the knowledge that in a few short months it will actually be providing us with wonderful, abundant food!  If you are trying your hand at gardening this year, too, I highly recommend planting some sweet snap peas from seed, they grow so quickly and beautifully, it's quite a thing of beauty to see.

Did I mention I'm Container gardening this year? If you haven't heard about it, it's easy and can be done virtually anywhere! I chose to do this method, in particular, because it saves a ton of water, you're just watering your plant and not the ground! (definitely important in drought areas) or even just due to limited space.  You can get a better idea with this pic! The ideas out there are endless!

With that and planning and prepping for a baby shower for my beautiful niece, I'm keeping my schedule full.  New babies coming into the family are sp exciting and bring so much joy, don't they?! I'm going to meet our newest (12-week-old) blessing, my grand-niece, Sabrina, in a couple weeks. I'm so excited I can hardly contain myself! Well, that’s what I've been up to, let’s see what you guys are doing! 

Here are just a few of your lovely shares from last week’s party.

    Mornin, Theresa. So glad you guys are getting the rain you need. Container gardening is something I haven't done in years. I have grown tomatoes and herbs in containers on our deck (away from all the deer!). Thank you so much for featuring my post - wish I could set up that bistro set NOW, but we're still getting snow round these parts! I'm sharing at 12, 15 and 17 and appreciate all of your time and talents in gathering us together for TFT.

    Hi Theresa. I love container gardening! Nothing to linkup today, just visiting links. If you or anyone else has posts about genealogy, we'd love to have you linkup at our genealogy themed party.

    Thanks so much for this party Theresa! Beautiful features! I too will be doing a lot of container gardening this year. Mostly because it's easier to bend over than to get myself up from the ground!!! I'm linking up today with #148 and 149. Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend ahead!
