Parfaits, Veggies, and Bears

I'm starving.
I just ate but I am having a quiet afternoon so what better way to pass the time than look at food blogs??
Wrong.
All I can think about are cinnamon buns, strawberry cupcakes with frosting, chocolate swirl banana bread, and parfaits.... yum who doesn't love a parfait?
Much better than onions.
don't you think?
I think that if I was to have "layers" then I would have delicious strawberry cream layers.
It's an absolutely gorgeous day here.
I want to plant my garden. I probably will but on Monday or Tuesday. It's getting so close I can hear the distant tilling of the rototiller... the sweet music of fresh veggies. Its shocking to me how late we have to start our garden here. I mean it was still snowing last week. Well, snow or no snow it's getting done.
I'm getting impatient.
We are also building a fence.
Any offers for help???
NO?
I didn't think so.
If it wasn't my fence I'd try to get out of it too. It'll be so nice to have a bear free yard. I am looking forward to sending my childrens out into this great big world and to not have to monitor for ferocious carnivores (I am clearly aware that bears are omnivores and that they don't hunt small children to eat them... just a little extra to add to my story... you know I have nothing against the great Canadian black bears... grizzlies are pushing it though. did you ever see the movie Grizzly Man... doesn't end well.)
where was i?
Oh my fence. My lovely lovely fence. Do you know what I see? I see me sitting on my deck... sipping lemonade and reading a book or knitting and my children going bonkers running and yelling and being merry children in my yard...
doesn't that sound lovely?
I think I will dream of that some more...
have a good weekend folks.
I know I will.
