Spring has sprung!

My posting groove took a nosedive again. Oops lol

Spring has finally sprung and I have been out and about with dogs and gardening. This is my favorite time of year and I try to absorb all the good sunshine vibes while I can.

So what have I been up to? So glad you asked!

We saved a bee - well, Ripley saved a bee (or she found it and we provided food and shelter for it's recovery). It was on our living room carpet, slowly crawling across when Ripley found it. I don't know why but she likes bees lol We have a very docile species out here called Mason Bees and she is always investigating them and there she was - worrying over this little bee. (which is funny because she's normally an evil little dog lol). We took it outside and placed it on the only thing blooming at the time - our rosemary - and waited for pollen and sunshine to do it's thing. It did seem to revive and start feeding in the morning, so hopefully it went on it's merry way. 

We had the best sundaes at a place called Sugarpine Drive-in. It's out in the Gorge area of Oregon and they have great food but their monthly rotating sundaes are next level. 

I had the Coffee and Baklava - vanilla soft serve with Arabic coffee caramel, cinnamon-toasted filo crisps, crushed walnuts, pistachio, cocoa nib, whipped Arabic coffee cream.

 

Kevin had the Strawberry Ridge - a mix of strawberry/almond soft serve, lemon ricotta shortbread bites, basil whips.

And I spotted these little goslings on our morning walk through the park. 

I've also been reading more! These were my April reads. I reviewed the Princess Swap on the blog a few weeks ago and hope to get reviews written for the others as well. I really enjoyed them all! 

That's all for now because - still feeling lazy (about blogging) lol But I was hoping if I got something up it might motivate me. 

Let me know what you've been up to in the comments!
