The Redbud ... Love it..

The sun is shining and it looks like the first tiny leaves are showing up on a couple of the trees and buds are showing up on many more. I went out to take the pic of the redbud tree this year and was surprised by how green the meadow is already. Even if the thermometer on the back porch says 50 degrees at 10:30 this morning, the quick breeze out there makes it feel like it's about 32. (DH says I'm a wimp! grin)

I finally bought the rose essential oil I have been coveting for the last 2 years.... The only thing I can say is that a person should go ahead and get it when they first think of it...The price had gone up $10. an ounce to make it now $35. an ounce. That's the last of that because it takes almost a whole ounce to make anything... Think I will move on to something like lilac or jasmine...

While I was there I saw some necklaces that were polished flat stones with holes in the center.. I had to have one and here is what I have done with it...lol It only goes to show that a person can make a spindle out of almost anything...grin

The truth is that DH is going to cut the brush part off and I will refinish it. I was most surprised, however, that it spins just fine with the brush still attached...
