Foodie & Fertilizer Friday!

I'm joining 

Tootsie

for

Fertilizer Friday

& 

Gollum

for

Foodie Friday

today.

I thought that you would like to see

my version of the

Succulent Wreath.

Carefree

and

works in the shade! 

Since today is Fertilizer Friday

and we're all going 

to be busy in our gardens today,

and Rhubarb is in season and all,

I thought this 

5 ingredient dessert

would be perfect for today. 

Dice 2 cups of Rhubarb.

(I thought that this picture was kinda pretty.)

Place in a traditional 9x13 pan.

Add one 15 oz. can 

of

Crushed Pineapple

 in its own syrup.

Melt one stick of Butter.

Spread dry yellow cake mix - 

straight from the box -

evenly over fruit.

Pour melted butter over all.

Sprinkle with chopped nuts.

I used Walnuts.

You could also use Pecans.

Bake in a 350 degree oven

for 1 Hour.

Someone couldn't wait...

(and burned his tongue)

Serve with Whipped Topping.

Actually, Cool Whip (gasp) 

tastes best with this.

Well, our rained stopped 

and it warmed up a bit,

so I went out to plant 

the Lamb's Ears.

Look what I uncovered....

At first I noticed the 

white round ball.

I almost picked it up.

Ewwwww!

It's a Wolf Spider

with an egg sac

stuck to it's spineret.

&

It moves fast - 

egg sac and all.

Creepy!!!

It scurried quickly into the Coneflower.

We decided to leave it alone...

Somebody had to have this gadget,

let's just say it wasn't me.

I guess my herbs needed watering.

The lawn was okay.

Here's one last look 

at the 

Pansies.

Their job is done.

Spring has sprung.

They are retiring 

to the backyard.

Hopefully, the new plants 

will be planted in time

for Met Monday!

Sorry this was long winded today,

now I'm off to check out

the other great recipes

and gardens featured today!
