Spring!
It may still be cold, but I’ve been finding bits of springtime (or creating bits of it!) all around me 🙂 Firstly, I’ve been spying it outdoors…
Is that water? Oh my gosh, that’s water! THE ICE IS MELTING in Grand Haven! HURRAH!
This ice was melting from the inside out, creating a little cave!
Bright skies = happy days
Secondly, I’ve been creating a springtime atmosphere to “spy” indoors…!
Nothing like whipping up some Lemon Poppy Seed Scones for a nice spring day. I made my first-ever batch with a nice (cute!) mug of coffee nearby.
The recipe said to cut the scones into twelve triangles, but I chose to cut the twelve in half again because they were so big. The scones were fantastic!
I may not be able to start a garden just yet, but I was able to make a cute radish needle felting craft with one of my Whimsey Box kits. I had never heard of needle felting before, but now I’m in love with it. I can’t wait to show you a tutorial featuring the other needle felt cutie I made!
There was invigorating spring lemon scent in another of my Whimsey Box kits: homemade lotion and hand scrub.
I also decided to make some Vanilla Pistachio Cream Puffs because I thought the bright, pastel green color created a nice, light spring feel.
The cream puffs were yummy, too, so I decided it would be best to get them out of the house and bring them to work 🙂
Where have you spied spring?

i’ve been wanting to bake so much lately but i have to wait until easter. the scones and cream puffs look so good!
They turned out really yummy! I am looking forward to Easter brunch. Thinking sometime throughout the day I wanna make rolls that look like bunnies, orange Easter cupcakes, and pastel-colored deviled eggs 🙂
