Happy Outdoor Wednesday Fifi! I'll have a springtini!okay and maybe a sandwich! I'll have to watch the auction (and not bid)... I am in a budget! Thanks for sharing your photos.~ Susan
Fifi you have a beautiful garden. I forget that you guys can grow freesias out there --they don't like it here, it's too hot. Oh man, the scent of a blooming freesia is an amazing thing. Thanks for the photos!
Fifi, That painting everyone gave their opinion on turned out fantastic. I like the black and white chair and the pink table. I thought pink but said red. PERFECT.
Your garden is lovely too. Can't wait for ours to get going. Soon.
Your garden looks gorgeous and so pretty Fifi - just like your paintings. xv
Your garden and all of your painting are beautiful!! xoxo
The spraxis are such a delight. They look so happy it makes me wanna smile :-) I can also imagine them as a flower accessory of a pattern for a dress!
Would also love me some Spring dessert!
Happy Outdoor Wednesday!
Happy Outdoor Wednesday Fifi, your garden is bursting with springness, I will come back for the auction in the morning it's past midnight here now and I can't see properly on account of being on here far to long, lol, night, Kathy.
Your garden is beautiful Fifi ~ I love a vase of freesias in the house, they smell divine also your pink rose is so pretty..
I love your paintings.

Amazing garden....and paintings!
What a delightful post - love all those flowers and your paintings :)
Oooh I do love living in California and seeing our colorful flowers year round. Your garden looks so cozy. Thanks for letting me stroll through it! Jane T.
Good morning Fifi! I loved this spring post and the pictures from your amazing garden. It was such a wonderful sight to see such beautiful green gardens, flowers and ponds. Thanks for sharing with us.
Your paintings as always are so beautiful Fifi, you inspire so much.
Blessings - Debbie
Such pretty flowers. I wish I could grow roses here. Love the picture of the pink rose. Unfortunately, not enough sun in my yard.
Thanks for sharing.

Lovely, lovely paintings and pictures! But just like Susan, I'll have to pass on the auction; we're on a "spending" hibernation for another month... Hubby's orders!
Good luck at the auction!
I love how the chair painting turned out. Thanks for letting us jump in and be virtual artists for a day.
Hugs,
Sue

Hi FiFi!~ Enjoyed all the lovely Springiness happening in this post! The flowers are sweet and the food is calling to me! :0)
Beautiful flowers and beautiful paintings. I think the the sprintini looks especially refreshing. I love your blog, you are so talented.

You have some very pretty flowers in your garden!
Thanks for the lovely pictures of YOUR gardens!
The finished painting is great!
Blessings...
The Springtini is just what I have been needing...where is Petunia? is she passed out somewhere, perhaps due to too many of this refreshing drink?
your garden looks wonderful, fifi!
you are so very talented - you inspire me to want to do more with my yard.
I LovE your garden pics! How beautiful! I love the snapdragons. I guess it is the time of year for gardening...I just posted about my little herb and veggie garden.
Fifi
Love these. I would like to start the bid - $26 on both Spring Flower Cake Plate and Harlequin Cafe
I'd like a spring roll and a springtini. You are such a talented lady.

Dearest Fifi:
Oh, Spring has sprung and I am in love! What a delicious feeling it is! Don't get me wrong, it is not with a man but with all that is fabulous in life! Soon we will be jetting to Paris and who knows what lovely adventure will be awaiting me and what his name might be!
Your Springtinis were just divine...and please be sure to let Violet know that I did not "pass out" anywhere! I lady doesn't do that or at least if she, does not remember she has so there is no way she could say that she did! I do love a little springroll and yours were quite delicate and delicious.
One day I will have to come and stroll through your gardens with you. You would like that, wouldn't you Fifi? I know you would love to paint me in that setting.
Sincerely,
Petunia who would love to play with a little paddle...anytime!
Hi Fifi,
Just wanted to say thank you for stopping by my blog. Your painting are so cute and cheerful, I'm going to have to take a look around! Have a great day!
Smiles,
Nancy
Those bright greens really pop!
You have a very pretty garden!
Beautiful and lovely flowers just like my garden full of flowering plants too.
