February 2010 400
I have waited a very long time for this occasion…the first blossom! I am so thrilled that I finally have a flower to flaunt; I feel like throwing a party!

How is your garden growing? Are you still digging out from the snow, or are you in one of those lovely southern climes and have to use a machete to get to the mailbox?

To see beautiful gardens from around the world, visit Flaunt Your Flowers Friday at Tootsie Time.

    Thanks for visiting The Sandwich Years. It is nice to meet you! I agree that your crocus is lovely. I never tire of marveling at God's handiwork! I had daffodils last week and our Bradford pear is in full bloom… gorgeous! Hallelujah! It's spring!

    Congrats on your crocus! It is lovely 🙂 It was a mild Feb in the Pac NW..and March has been wet and windy. The snow crocus started to bloom in early Feb and all things are on track for an early start to the growing season. Hoping you see more blooms soon!

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
