A couple of days of mild temperatures and high winds and it's amazing how much melting has occurred. The mountains of ploughed snow around our village shrunk by half over the weekend and those damn ice dams - poof ! gone. Hooray ! We're dreaming of seeds, soil, lilacs & tulips and the Prince has plans to build us a petite fenced in raised cottage garden (inspiration below).
That is after he finishes his no-more-damn-ice-dams big time attic, eaves insulation project, he has great ideas & plus de plans to make this old brick house snug as a bug before next winter.

We're very inspired by Dani's backyard haven ... stop by and have a look at her magical gardens.
