Our first Tulip garden

My plan for the view from my window (I call it the garden view) this spring was to have lots of pink tulips. Well first the mini daffodils came up and then finally (spring was late this year here in BC) lots of pink tulips!
I would also like to introduce you to my garden gnome.
Any suggestions for a name for him?

Tiling the kitchen

On Easter long-weekend my friend Jennifer and I tiled the baking kitchen.
I think it looks pretty good!
We cut the tiles and hung the tiles and then the second day we grouted.
