77

Wat a lovely festive day it was today !
After a (very) quiet birthday on Friday
family and friends were visiting today.

Presents and LOTS of flowers


One of many beautiful bouquets !
(amazing, where these out-of-season flowers come from
hmmmm glass houses of course)

Though NOT a sunny day
(in fact even cold)
the flowering trees in the garden
are bravely showing their colours (for me) !


The green points on the Ginkgo tree
are promising bright green leaves soon too.


Another small gouache painting finished and framed.

  2. Happy birthday Els, glad you had a lovely celebratory day yesterday. I hope you are feeling the benefits of your cataract surgery and that your husband's health is also improving.
