May Day

May Day dawned cold and cloudy this year. After all those warm sunny days this seems like a slap on the face, May Day or other day. So cold that the wood anemonies in more exposed areas have decided to stay closed and not open their flowers for the day at all. But birches have leaves, which is kinda rare on May Day.

Grilling season is here

It's almost April and the sun is out and snow has melted and... According to the weather forecasts we still may get some cold and snow next week, but inspite of that, we took out our grill yesterday. Not all of the patio furniture yet, but the grill <3 And we grilled some duck for dinner. So much better start for the season than last year with that small temporary grill!

May Day celebration at home

May Day being the big spring celebration, we took out our garden furniture and had a splendid meal of "Vappu salad" on our patio, and had our first Strawberry Daiquiries of the spring, topped with fresh mint from our herbgarden :)

Opening of the grilling season

Sun didn't come out yesterday, but after the drizzle was over, we fired up our grill for the first time this spring.
