Smorgasbord Blog Magazine Weekly Round Up – Spring planting, Hits of the 1970s, Iconic Duets, Heart Health, Book Reviews, Blogger Spotlight, Funnies

Welcome to the round up of posts you might have missed this week on Smorgasbord.

Finally it is spring….I managed to get my planting done in the front and the back garden and was able to sit and enjoy the first warmth after what has been a long, wet and windy winter. Even our cat’s bungalow got a make over and I had to laugh the other day when he arrived back to see his new garden and he inspected all the plants. Here is a small taste of how things are taking shape.

I have been so honoured to have been featured this week by two amazing authors on their blogs. It gives you such a boost to be on the receiving end of this kindness and has made my week extra special.

Joy Neal Kidney surprised me with a lovely feature and I do so appreciate her kindness and boost for Variety is the Spice of Life
