Climbing an Ice Mountain

What do you do when you want to scale an icy mountain, and you live on the Prairies?   Why, you do this….004

The sign says “alpine”…hmmm….

As they say, where there is a will, there is a way….

Winnipeg’s mountain….

Hi Millie, Thanks for stopping by my blog again recently.

Boy, the winter we've had, we could almost build a tower like your picture shows! It's snowing again today.

Have you been doing any flower or wreath making recently? I always enjoy seeing what you are up to.

Oh my, where is that at, Millie? I haven't seen it. I dreamt once that there were mountains surrounding Winnipeg, just like on the west coast, LOL, but I haven't seen any mountains here in real life. hugs, Cindy S.

The chanterelles were lightly sautéed in butter... The egg mixture was prepared...eggs, green onions, parmesan cheese, and a dash of cream.. And then...the finished plate! Bacon was crisp, and the toasted Italian bread was just perfect! I felt truly spoiled!

The Soft Colours of Summer

I love hydrangeas, and although we can grow the Limelight and Annabelle varieties fairly easily here in Manitoba, it is only recently that with some luck, we can overwinter Endless Summer. Endless Summer blooms in pink in our lime soil, unless we feed it with copper sulphate to bring out the blue . Last week, after a rainstorm, I noticed how soft and pretty the colours were. I am joining in with Monday Mosaics at Mary's. What lovely contributions we find over there every week, and thanks, Mary! *****Click on the photo to enlarge*****
