Southern Spring

Some more pictures from my walks. I love walking this time of year. So many blooms blooming and trees turning green. Just spectacular. As we were walking yesterday, I thought “God really does things right!” What a beautiful world we live in!

So many colors!

This next picture is of a sweet bluebird couple that was flying around. They didn’t really stay still for a good pose, but I wanted to take a picture to show you anyway.

Today’s Lagniappe: Dandelion Salad

4 slices bacon, cut in small pieces
approximately 2 c. chopped new dandelion leaves
2 hard boiled eggs, sliced or chopped
2 Tbsp. chopped onion
1/4 c. butter
1/2 c. cream or milk
1 egg, beaten
1/2 tsp. salt
dash of pepper
1/4 c. cider vinegar
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 Tbsp. flour

Toss together chopped dandelion, chopped onion and fried bacon pieces. Set aside. In skillet warm butter and cream until butter melts. Beat egg and then add salt, pepper, vinegar, sugar and flour. Blend the egg mixture into the slightly warm cream mixture. Increase heat and cook, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Pour hot dressing over the greens and toss gently. Add eggs before tossing. Serve at once. Gather the dandelion leaves early in the spring before the plants flower or they will be bitter.

    so pretty! There’s nothing like spring flowers! This is my first Pink Saturday and I’m enjoying hopping around and seeing all the pink pretties! Please stop by my place and see my little Basket Full of Sunshine! until later…

    Don’t you just love Spring?! Just when I’ve given up and believe that it will be cold, gray and dreary forever, the sun comes out and the flowers start appearing. Your blog is just lovely. I’ve been enjoying it for a few days and thought I should say hello.
