Joining Like Mother, Like Daughter for {phfr}, as usual. :)

I know, you're thinking, "Enough with the robins already," but it's so much fun to have them back.  Last week there was a flock of dozens and dozens in our backyard, all with white patches on their bottoms.  This one even had a largely white tummy, and what red there was was subdued.  Did you know there is such a thing as a white robin?  There is, and though this one is far from all white, it was the whitest robin I have seen.  This particular flock of robins has not appeared in our yard again.  They must have moved on.

I wish the picture were better, but Birdie was not very cooperative!

Last week, I told you we had planted our tomatoes.  Guess what?  They're up!

The fact that these little seeds will grow into large, bushy plants that will produce oodles of tomatoes is still amazing to me.

The Winnie the Pooh stories are favorites of mine and always will be.  My granddaughter (with the help of her parents) gave me this darling book for Christmas.  I keep it on the coffee table and take a few minutes to look through it now and then. I mean, just look at it!  How can I resist??

It has E.H. Shepard's original illustrations and flaps and moveable parts and pop-ups.  And see Eeyore's tail? What's not to love about this book? I ask you!

Thanks for visiting!
