Another perfect day, nice breeze and a few clouds rolling by. Had a first lesson with a new piano student today and it went well. The other two regular Wednesday piano students had to take the day off due to school overload but I appreciated the time off. I begun the much needed second coat on the porch floor and admired the blossoming dogwoods in front of the house. The quiet today was much appreciated after the 3 hours spent on a school bus loaded with middle school girls yesterday, the things I do for the sake of music!(I was accompanying for a Choral festival)
For lunch, I made my easy baked curry. On days when I have chores to get done I like to make dishes that cook slowly in the oven. The food cooks while I get my stuff done.

Out in the backyard, the containers I planted last fall continue to bloom and "swell" from the warm weather.
 |
| Violas, Hobbits foot sage and Burrows Tail Euphorbia |
