My Mama loved Peeps like nobody else I know. She could eat those every day.

They were never my cup of tea, but I do think they’re cute and fun. I have a stuffed yellow bunny Peep *pillow* that I use as a decoration for one of the chairs in the living room when I decorate for Easter.

Perhaps this is the ping to this weeks addition to garden thread, but I seem to absent from the list, which I look for on Saturdays. Thanks,

Last week was mostly warm and dry here in Central Missouri... until it wasn't. It's been raining on and off here since Thursday. We've had a touch over 4" since it started. Yesterday was ugly. Bad storms all over the midwest. No severe winds at my place but there was a lot of it around. The recycling facility at the local dump was wiped out by a small tornado yesterday afternoon.

The rhubarb plants I bought and repotted a couple weeks ago have been moved outdoors and are looking pretty good. Tomato plants are still in the greenhouse and are also looking happy. I didn't get the last ten asparagus crowns planted before the rain started. I'm wondering if I should stick them in the fridge until it dries up enough that I can set them out?

I managed to get the house yard and all of the outlying stuff mowed in between rain showers Friday and Saturday. It was starting to get shaggy and would have been a real mess if left until later.

So far my orchard trees have been relatively unscathed by frost. Mrs. Augie's magnolia tree got semi-frozen one night but not bad enough to wipe it out. The blossoms that were open didn't do so well but most of them still in tight buds and weren't damaged.
