I think that I have just about come to the point in my blogging where I need to seriously consider getting a digital camera. With the quilts I want to share, and the gardens, you’d have a clearer idea of what I was talking about if I included a picture in the entry.
To that end, do you have any suggestions for cameras that the technology impaired can use successfully? If you were just starting out with a digital camera, which one would you buy?
I have a nephew, and a step-son who will probably have answers for me, but neither of them blog, and they are both very adept electronically. I’d appreciate any suggestions you care to share.

At last….Garden time!
I’ve had the chance to be out in my garden once this year, but tomorrow…..ah, tomorrow…..I’m going to have the entire morning out there.
I still have some clean up to do from last fall. I cleaned out about half of the garden at the sidewalk last week. I want to finish that work, so that the daffodils and tulips will be able to look their best this spring.
I was checking out the herb garden this afternoon. I need to cut back chives, feverfew, oregano and yarrow. There are two chrysanthemums in that garden that need to be pruned, along with the winter savory, the sage, and a clematis that climbs an arbor at the end of the garden.
ED
For those of you who have been following the saga of Ed, my cat, I have news. The vet feels it’s good news, because she has determined what’s wrong, and feels that it is treatable.
Ed has toxoplasmosis. It’s a parasite that he’s picked up from the animals he hunts outside. We are going to give him a course of antibiotics for the next four weeks. At least, we HOPE we are going to give him a course of antibiotics. He is to get one milliliter twice a day, on his food. It’s a liquid antibiotic that has been doctored with three-fish flavor! Wish us luck because this is a tough cat to con when it comes to medicine.
All’s well…
We had an absolutely lovely Easter weekend. I hope that you all did too!
I blogged about the fact that we were expecting some unusual changes to our celebration of Easter. Rather than have my extended family come to dinner, Elegant Mother, Dear Husband and I celebrated alone. It was a little odd, but lovely. It was still sunny outside when I set the table for dinner at five. I put out the china and crystal and candles just for the three of us.
When dinner was over, Dear Husband helped me to clean up, and then we all found relaxing things to do for the evening. Normally, clean up would occupy me through Monday morning. I’m sad that my family couldn’t clear the decks to join us, but I really enjoyed the laid back weekend. We had a great time driving up to the new quilt shop, and a wonderful lunch on the way home. If you should come across a new fast food chain called “Asiago” in your travels, I highly recommend that you stop for lunch.
We’ve all recharged our batteries, and are ready for Spring. It’s supposed to be 67 tomorrow. I’ll be the one out in the gardens!
