Spring Florals

 One of the things I like about Spring is the beautiful flowering trees and bushes and other plants.  We have taken a few pictures of them!


The trees have been fabulous this spring BUT the weather has been extra warm and the blossoms quickly turned to leaves.


Here is a tree halfway between blossoms and leaves...

One thing I DO NOT like about the glorious blossoms is POLLEN!  Until five or six years ago  it was not a problem.  Now it is.  Driving all over the sapworks for church and other business makes my eyes  itch and weep.  Even my skin is itchy.

GOOD NEWS!  When I was at the Dorr Farms store purchasing some fresh vegetables we were chatting.  I was complaining a little about the itchy eyes. The Mrs. said I need to eat a spoonful of honey at bedtime to help things. IT DOES!  Local raw honey so it is the same honey that has that particular pollen.  It also helps with sleep.  Win-win!
