Have you seen any signs of Spring yet ?
Hi friends I hope you are well and happy.
Thank you for reminding me and letting me know that I am missed. I hope I am not letting you down, sorry about the infrequent posts. It will soon change, I promise you !
Have you seen any signs of spring yet ? I am waiting impatiently to see any changes. Although it is still cold (during the night about -8) we have been enjoying more sunny days than normal. The light is different, it changes. From grey and cold, the light is now intense bright and a bit warmer in colour. Makes getting up in the morning definitively a little easier ! Here in Norway we barely see any natural light during the winter time, no wonder we are getting a bit out of "happy" energy sometimes. The benefits of warm and beautiful sunlight are significant for everyone, me too.

A couple of years ago I wrote about my little trip to Dyhre nurseries. It was a delightful experience, a beautiful little treasure trove of lovely things to admire. Among the things you can take home are antique French garden furniture, lamps, nice pottery, a huge selection of herb plants ( which I really like ), exotic trees and much treasured European plants like roses and Pelargonium. Small round tables are set in one of the decorated greenhouses surrounded by flowers and vintage furniture's, where you could enjoy your coffee or cup of tea. It`s quirky and charming, and feels very special. I felt really inspired by the surroundings too, set in the beautiful countryside with fields and farmhouses. The nurseries are now closed but around Easter time they will once again open their doors for customers. I am definitively taking another trip back, I need a fresh new Rosemary tree and maybe a couples of terracotta plant pots. They always have a few of those you never find elsewhere.
Here are a few pictures from last trip mixed with a few of their own... ( and here`s my enthusiastic story if interested )
