I'm joining Holly and Patty for their Monthly Musings link-up. This month we are discussing Spring Hosting, Decorating, and Gardening.
HERE ARE THE QUESTIONS:
1. We celebrate Easter each year. We went out to a favorite Italian restaurant for a late afternoon dinner. The food and service is always good. All three of us shared a salmon appetizer and fried calamari. I had Chilean sea bass for my entree and it was delicious tasting.
2. I like to plant flowers, herbs, and a few vegetables each year. We didn't plant anything last year because Lucy was a puppy and I didn't want her eating anything by mistake. I am hoping to do more planting for this spring and summer.
3. I like to plant pansies in my planter on my front stoop.
4. When I think of a spring dessert I think of pastel-colored macarons, lemon maringue pie, and strawberry shortcake.
5. My favorite spring flowers are daffodils, tulips, pansies, and lily of the valley.
6. My tip for hosting a spring event is to stay organized and make lists.
7. My favorite cocktail that makes me think of spring and summer is an Aperol Spritz.
8. I like to plant a vegetable and flower garden each year. When I first plant them it's hard because the squirrels like to dig them up. I always have to replace a few of them.
9. My favorite Easter candy is small chocolate Easter eggs.
10. I don't like Marshmallow Peeps. I try not to eat candy anymore.
WISHING EVERYONE A HAPPY SPRING!

That sounded like a really nice Easter and easy on you! The food looked delicious too. I love spring flowers. I really want to plant some Lily of the Valley. I haven't had them for years. I was into jellybeans this year but I am over them now! I can't wait to sit outside at a restaurant and order and Aperole spritz!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such a yummy Easter dinner!
ReplyDeleteThe Easter dinner was so good Joanne. I hope you had a nice Easter too.
DeleteLove all your answers Julie. Your Easter dinner looked really yummy. I am not a big candy person except jelly beans at Easter are my weakness. I do like Easter Lamb cake with fresh strawberries. Have a great week. Hugs. Kris
