In My Neighborhood

 

Solidarity.

Very early snowdrops. In a few days, they should be everywhere.

Artichoke season is starting. I don’t know where these grew, but definitely not here!

Enjoy the artichokes!

I never had fresh artichokes - just once from a glass, and they were terrible.
Yes, we need to show we are pro Ukraine. The first refugees already have arrived in the neighborhood.

Hello,
It is nice to see the Ukraine flag, standing for peace and unity.
I wish I had some snowdrops growing here, hubby refuses to do any more planting. Take care, have a happy weekend.

We have some light displays on public buildings, and people are wearing the colors in scarves and ties.

Your snowdrops are such a beautiful welcome to the coming spring. You must look forward to seeing them each year.

Seeing those snowdrops coming up made me excited for spring! It will be a month or two before I see that in my area. Thanks for sharing!

Hooray for spring!

I see all of these as signs that things are moving forward. It has been a positive sign to me that so many people have stood for Ukraine. The appearance of the first spring flowers...fresh vegetables...all of this reminds me that things get bad and then they get better again...hopeful.

We got some artichokes a few weeks ago that were delish. Enjoy those for sure.

When we lived up north, it was always such a treat to see the first plants start to grow! Thanks for sharing.

Hi Mae! My husband loves artichokes. I just never know what to do with it...

Have a wonderful week and I hope those Snowdrops will bloom for you this week.

I love the first sign of Spring! And those are some really nice looking artichokes. It's good to see positive signs of renewal, and it's great that so many Americans are giving support to the Ukraine, however they can.

Looks like spring is underway there. The snowdrops are out!

Solidarity, for sure. So awful what's happening.

Glad to see some Spring flowers popping up. Enjoy those artichokes!

That's one thing about liviing where there are definite seasons - you can look forward to Spring growth. We currently have some azalea, crabapple and dogwood trees blooming but it's too early. We are set to get temps in the 20's tomorrow night, ugh. I hope everything survives.

Love the flag. We are about a 1/2 mile off the main road but I know if I put a flag out near our mailbox, some redneck would destroy it. We are in one of the small blue areas of Florida, surrounded by red voters. Also ugh.
