Friday Favorites #415

This week the Princess had to bring a sign of Spring to school. It just so happened that my Hero planted some early spring vegetables the previous afternoon, so she brought seeds and gardening tools. Spring always has me longing for flowers and vegetables…everywhere. I can just image this adorable flower bench on my porch.  Is it spring where you live? Or does Winter still have a firm grip? We are definitely halfway between the two.  D2B3B94A-7343-4B9A-BDF2-23D18A689DE6

Irish Green

What a glorious taste of Spring we had this week…and a wind storm to blow winter right back into us. I guess March is suppose to do that, all that “in like a Lion and out like a Lamb” stuff we learned in school. March has me dreaming of Spring flowers and lovely days outside with the possibility of snow in the back of my mind. How to decorate?…that is a good question. It’s a little early for lambs, bunnies and chicks in my opinion but a little late for full-on winter cozy. Thank goodness we have a full holiday right in the middle of the month. Time to get our St. Patrick’s Day decor on! Even if, like me, you have nary a drop of Irish blood in you!

A simple mantel display of green depression glass will easily transition to early Spring as the month draws to a more “lamb-like” close.

The Doric and Pansy found on these teacups is my most favorite depression glass pattern

Vintage St. Patrick’s Day postcards add a touch of whimsy to an old window frame

Shhhhhh…I have spotted a leprechaun caught in a glass jar…I hope he doesn’t escape.

Also spotted…our art loving lucky little Princess who loves magic and rainbows, just like a real leprechaun!

Did you know I lived in Japan for three years? In between shopping and eating great sushi, I enjoyed many cups of healthy green tea. The recipe I featured may not be the healthiest way to consume your daily recommended dose of green tea but it sure sounds delicious!F18A882B-4638-47AE-8100-48CA9F850CAF
