Bring Spring Inside and the Pottery Barn Blog

Hey sweet friends! Is everyone keeping warm? It’s been soooo cold, hasn’t it?

But, last week, while we had gorgeous warm days, I brought some herbs and blooms inside to enjoy….

Pear blossoms at my kitchen window and in a vintage milk jug:

Rosemary and lavender hanging from my drying rack:

I really love having the various herbs in the garden to use while cooking…so this year I planted a few more varieties.  Maybe this Easter weekend it will be warm enough to work in the garden again. What are you planning for your garden this year?

Also, did you know that Pottery Barn has a BLOG?? Well, I want to say THANKS to The Pottery Barn Blog for featuring our kitchen today! I’m honored to be included in the SHOW & TELL section on Pottery Barn's Blog HERE

I hope you all have a fabulous Easter week! Thanks for visiting my blog :)

Blessings

    I wish our weather was warmer to get out in the garden. The second best thing is to bring the flowers and herbs indoors...so pretty!

  3. I could look at your blog all day long. Unfortunately It has its drawbacks.... I am house hunting and no kitchen could compare to yours without a lot of money thrown into it....

  19. Tudo muito lindo. Também gosto muito de ervas. Tenho usado no tempero dos alimentos muitas ervas no lugar do sal.
    Aqui estamos numa seca terrível, minhas ervas morreram tudo. Agora vai começar a estação das chuvas.
    Tenha uma feliz Pascoa.
