oh georgia, girl, you have been a warm welcome and an old sweet song since we came home. i feel like i am being re-acquainted with a long lost friend.
i have been enjoying lots of nature walks with my mother-in-law, husband and my mother around all the lovely little streets. folks smile and wave as we stroll on by, even if they have never seen us before. we've been greeted with warm air and some nice thunderstorms too.
today we went to ed's grandfather's house and devoured our fair share of tangy pulled pork, salty collard greens, and buttermilk biscuits. and of course, sweet tea and peach cobbler. pop even let me play in his basement and "relieve" him of some old, rusty hardware hooks, nails, burlap and the like.
tomorrow my mother is going to teach me about gardening. she even already potted a little chamomile for me. i hope her green thumb is part of my genetic makeup. we shall see...
i must say, it feels pretty good to be a georgia peach again.

awwh, welcome home!! I'm excited to see all the photos to come of your charming Southern livin' !
(oh! and I keep meaning to ask you, do you know a good recipe for sweet tea?)
hooray! welcome home :) Where are y'all living? Atlanta did have some lovely cherry blossoms at the tail-end of march... we somehow managed to take engagement pictures when they were at their prettiest! check it out: http://ourlaboroflove.com/showit/kathleen_and_john_engagement/
happy southern spring to you!
How handy dandy to get gardening lessons!
Those stunning colourful flowers are really making me want to escape the city.
Oh I wish I had that many flowers here. Those are just gorgeous. So beautiful.
Such lovely photos! Welcome home.
Your pictures are so lovely. I love the spring time.
lovely. welcome home indeed, and soak it up - this is a beautiful thing :)
I'm so glad you're back in the South. I love it too.
Well, as much I've loved your posts from NYC, I'm so excited about your move back to Georgia! I feel like I'm about to start a new adventure! So, welcome home and, don't forget, NYC will always be there for you to visit...as a Texas-born NY'er trapped in L.A., this has become my mantra. Take care.
Beautiful photos =)! I wish I had a green thumb, but every time I attempt to keep a garden, everything seems to end up prematurely dying =(!
