mmmm... hyacinths.. hhmm spelling. ..
there is a yummy yummy smell lingering in our kitchen, dining.. its the yummy hyacinths.. in fact its only one and a hlaf of them.. they smell so wonderful.. it almost covers the sounds of Felicity screaming in the background.. i feel all sweet and delicious.. oohh... yummy.. its so exciting..
i just wennt and cuddled the misses and sang some songs.. i think she is off to sleep now..
in previous years I have just let all the spring flowering bulbs go in the garden.. but apparently iif you don;t take the flower heads off they spend lots of energy trying to seed and so the flowers the following year aren;t as great.. i learnt that a few months ago and was kind of bummed out that i didn;t dead head... so now i am going to cut some to put into the house and then leave the rest for the garden.. its so exciting to come out into the yard and have these strong green shoots popping up out of the soil all over the palce..
