It's Begun!

It always seem to happen overnight, as if my magic. The Snowdrops are blooming along the back fence. A beautiful sight for sure. I also discovered the beginnings of the Peonies, Bee Balm and Bleeding Heart peaking through the soil.

It is surprisingly Warm outside. Must be a south-westerly breeze. I ventured onto the front porch to get the mail earlier this morning expecting the chilly bite that's been in the air all week but was shocked by the warmth! Tomorrow soaking rains are supposed to arrive.

Spring is in the air!

I took some snowdrop pictures today, too! I also saw buds on a maple tree and our Bradford pear tree and on the Forsythia bushes and some crocus and daffodil shoots. Yay - spring is coming!

Thanks gals! It's certainly a sight for sore eyes, isn't it?

We were just talking this weekend about it seems to happen overnight...you go to sleep with it brown and muddy, and wake up to beautiful, green spring. I wish ours would hurry up around here. Thanks for the beautiful photo reminders of what's on it's way!
I can't imagine how beautiful Spring must be as it emerges where you are Leah!

An Enchanted Garden Party

Welcome to my post! To visit other participants, please head over to the Practical Magic Blog Party 2010 blog. I must say that while I think Practical Magic the movie is adorable, I think the novel is incredible. And that is where I gleaned my inspiration from for these festivities. Gardens are mysterious, magical and enchanting, don't you think? Now follow me out into the garden, I have everything all ready for you, including music! (Turn your volume on). *Update: Music has reverted to my regular Fall soundtrack, 9/28/2010* For all of you non Practical Magic Blog Party folks, head on over to NJ Through My Eyes where I've posted 2 new slide-shows today; one is a preview of a new project I'm working on!

2009 Halloween Fete! (Saturday October 17, 2009) **UPDATED!** This shindig is still going strong!

Welcome! I'm so happy to have had so many visitors already! I must apologize for not being ready for you earlier! I also apologize for the wacky font sizes throughout my post. No matter how hard I try, I can't correct them. If music doesn't begin playing shortly after your arrival, scroll down until you see a purple music widget begin to load in the left hand column and wait until you hear the music before scrolling back up here. Happy Halloween Fete 2009! Love and Spookiness to All! ~Jo (Continue scrolling down until the end of the post) Outside, it's a gloomy & cold day here on the NJ coast. Many a restless Spirit wander here on days like this. One can never be too sure if the fog & mist are just as they seem. Inside, it is warm yet equally frightful! Creepy crawlies have gotten into the food & drink, I so hope you don't mind! What with all of the party hopping we're doing, I didn't want you to bust a gut, so I've laid out some Pumpkin Cook

(Though it didn't post at 12:01am like it was supposed to). Anyhoo, I'm home and resting (uncomfortably). Surgery went well, my kidney tube and stone are gone! I have an internal stent on the left hand side but I'm okay with that because it comes out in the doctor's office in 2-3 weeks (no back to the hospital) and especially because it meant they could take that nephrostomy tube out! (The last nearly 2 weeks of that 15 weeks was rough with that thing, my body was simultaneously trying to heal aroun
