Spring. Getting the bike out, clearing the brambles and watching the snow disappear. I took these pictures in April, I'm a bit late as it's almost June. There is a lot to do in the spring.
J'habite sur la rue des Bouleaux, nomée ainsi probablement à cause de l'abondance de bouleaux.
Mon gâteau de fête. Il est plus beau que bon. J'ai pris la recette dans un Marie-Claire Australien. Il avait l'air très bon mais il est en fait très médiocre. Beaucoup de liquide (250gr de beurre fondu, 200 gr chocolat fondu, 375ml de café, 2 oeufs et seulement 140 gr de farine.) Mmmm! J'aurais du lire la recette avant. Ca fait pas très pro. Et en plus pas de grandeur de moule. J'ai pris un 23 cm. Ca donne un gâteau mouillé même avec une heure de cuisson. Mais c'est pas grave, je vais en faire un autre. Un bon quatre-quart dans "The Cake Bible" va faire l'affaire.
I'm posting a few pictures from Iceland as the winter is pretty bleak here and it's getting dirtier as it's going toward spring. I spent only a week in that beautiful country and I will go back for longer that's for sure. It's one of the most stunning place I've ever seen. Not that I've seen a lot. But for tranquility and beauty and all the things I like, you can't beat Iceland's ever changing scenery. It's amazing.

I finally did some needle work on Sunday and it was about time. I bought some cheep reading glasses and proceeded to like needle craft once more. I abandoned it a few years ago when my eyes started to see blurry things and I got frustrated a lot. Not pocking in the right spot and all and pricking my fingers a lot. I took the bull by the horn and made a hanky with a drawing my husband did years ago of my late dog Domino Doberdoodoo. I loved that dog. It's not fantastic but it's a start.
See the similarities!
And I did a little couture. We bought the piano bench last summer at an auction and Grant said it was not very comfortable. I found some great fabric at Etsy . So now all he needs is a little poof to put his foot up when he plays guitar. I can't believe I'm encouraging him. I must be going deaf as well.
