THE SCOOP #222
Welcome back to THE SCOOP! I know it’s still spring, but it’s the perfect time to look ahead a little and start thinking about warmer weather and early summer! Are you digging in the dirt yet? You know it does not take much at all to create a kitchen herb garden! Just a container, soil, a little sun, and some tasty herbs! Here’s a look at my kitchen herb garden! Don’t forget to see the twiggy garden markers in my collage below to mark all those fun herbs! Let’s get ready for outdoor summer living and the great posts you will find this week at THE SCOOP!

Hello, this is Anita Joyce, from Cedar Hill Farmhouse, your host for this week. Have you been dining outdoors lately? Here in Texas, the weather has been pretty perfect for dinner on the back porch. Speaking of porches, be sure to check out Prairie Style magazine this summer. Guess who’s porch will be on the cover? Yup, that’s the porch here at Cedar Hill Farmhouse. *Squee*

As you can tell from the features, my thoughts are turning to the outdoors. I would take breakfast, lunch and dinner on the porch if it was up to me.
Here is what your hosts have been up to this week.

Dear Yvonne,
I don’t know I you got my message or not that I just sent…my computer is acting funny. I just want to thank you for your dear blog, I look forward to it everyday and it is a blessing in my life. It is just so much fun to enjoy the same ideas with you.
Would you mind sharing with me where you got your white ceramic lanterns and the white open weaved bowl that you put pinecones in and I also saw it with green apples.
With wishes for healing, and a healthy God-filled New Year.

Hi Trish, Thanks for commenting. I did not get your email. Sorry! The white ceramic snowflake lantern came from my local Pottery Barn Outlet. The white bowl is a basketweave bread basket and you can find it here: http://rstyle.me/n/cbe74rb6by7
