Spring Blooms
Crocus and miniature iris are beginning to bloom in the garden. There are daffodils, hyacinths, tulips, and other bulbs breaking through the soil. Soon the gardens should be full of colour.

A Fern and Stump
Went walking in the woods today and came across a fern growing out of the top of a stump.

To Die For Carrot Cake
A while back I came across a carrot cake recipe that I booked marked for future baking purposes. Everything about this recipe made me think it would be moist and tasty. Not to mention with two 8-ounce packages of cream cheese in the frosting how could you go wrong.
The recipe can be found at Mom On Time Out:
So here is my attempt at "To Die for Carrot Cake".
The recipe for the cream cheese icing made way too much for one cake. It was also not stiff enough for piping.
The cake was super moist and very tasty. However, the icing was very rich and sweet. In the future I will adapt the icing recipe or look for a substitute.
All in all a good cake that I will make again.

Cream of Broccoli Soup
It is a soup type day, so I decided to make cream of broccoli soup.
As I have never made cream of broccoli soup before I used Google to search for a recipe. The one I decided upon is from Martha Stewart's web page:
It was a good choice. Not only is the soup delicious but the recipe was simple and easy to follow. Instead of using a pot I used a double boiler. This extended the cooking time. I will definitely make this soup again.

Waiting at the Hyundai Dealership
Just before 8:00 a.m. I arrived at Duncan Hyundai to have my vehicle serviced. It was still dark out and the rain was bucketing down. It took a long time for the morning light to break through.
While waiting I was quite intrigued with the pile of snow tires displayed by the door. I just had to take some photographs.
