Someday You Will Find Me Caught Beneath the Landslide

By Saturday morning, our driveway looked like this...


... and our greenhouse looked like this....


... and just so you know, I saved you from a close-up picture of the dead possum that committed suicide under the greenhouse. Be thankful.

A part of the backyard looked like this...


... and my kitchen was full of these...


... with the recipe posted on my gluten-free recipe site. ::drool::

The past few days have been really hectic and today is shaping up to be another one. ::sigh:: And it really doesn't help that my allergies are in over drive and my eyes are constantly itching and watering and yet are really, really dry. Urgh. Now I'm remembering what I like so much about winter.

holy cow those cupcakes look good! looks like you had a productive weekend - yay for you!

(too bad for poor possum, though).

Phew...what a weekend. Makes me feel a bit lazy, but as my "innerchild" was acting up, triggering my emotions and perhaps all being triggered by my allergies...I just rested (hehehe)

OK...I've seen two people that have made cupcakes lately, now I'm totally drooling...

Pretty tulips - mine aren't up yet - and may not come up with the overnight temperatures we've got on tap this week. And you already know my thoughts on those cupcakes.

Yea! Productivity! And best of luck with those itchy eyes.

Allergies stink. I've been waking up all week to a sneezing , runny nose. (I know, you wanted to hear about that:)

Congrats on getting the Greenhouse down and ewwwww, about the possum.

Goodbye, greenhouse!

Pretty tulips. We have a few random ones here and there, but I never get around to planting more!

RIP little possum!
Yummy cupcakes!
What's up with that sneezing? I've been doing it a bit more lately too...adult onset allergies? ugh!
Thanks for explaining that post to me!

More cupcakes! The blog world is definitely trying to kill me with all these photos of cupcakes. Yeah, I know, I could make some. But then I'd have to eat them ALL. True fact.

The tulips look so wonderful!

Look at you, you busy, busy lady. Even with allergies, you are kicking butt out there.

And your cupcakes are looking delightfully yummy.

Please tell me that greenhouse staging wasn't destined for the tip.

Lovely tulips - ours are weeks and weeks away. But cupcakes... I could have some of those in 20 mins if I pull my finger out....

You are NOT giving away......dumping.... that old table! That is so cool!

Looks like you're getting lots done at least. I hope your allergies calm down soon.

I hear you about the allergies. I kept hoping for spring, somehow forgetting that Spring is horrible. HORRIBLE on my sinuses and overall well-being. *sigh*
