April has been a busy month so far. The days have been full of celebrating birthdays in our family, a spring break adventure to Eureka Farm and Villa Tina in Palouse, preparing the gardens for spring planting and playful moments enjoying the small amount of sunshine days.
Through all the moments, my little Sony camera has been along for the ride. Out of the hundreds of images taken, here's some of my favorites.
Today we woke up to an inch of snow! Enough already! It didn't take long to melt off or prevent us from heading outside to enjoy some sunshine and do some gardening. Boots on, we tromped out into the fresh spring air, to plant a cherry tree, a gooseberry bush, two tree roses and some Merion Blackberries.
Saute chopped leeks, scallions in 2 Tablespoons butter and two large circles of Olive Oil.Add chopped rainbow carrots and four Yukon Gold potatoes.
Some shakes of Salt and Pepper.
Cook until wilted.
Add two boxes chicken broth.
Boil until veggies are tender.
Use stick blender to puree and further cream the soup or leave chunky, your choice.
Delish!
I couldn't resist photographing some of the little lovelies peaking out of the melting snow.
