Hey! Spring is here! (“Here” being Ottawa, where I sit.) This is the first really nice weekend of the year and I am SO ready for it… Thoughts turn to t-shirts (don’t forget to buy yours), running shoes, sunshine and flower pots. Nice change, isn’t it?

Andrea asks: Buying flowers–but did you buy the chick too? Because if so, I’m on my way over. The last bit of snow from the five foot pile in front of my house is gone now, too. Things are indeed looking up.

Tanya says: I still have a sad, gray pile of snow on my front yard. I think I shall indeed be one of those weirdos to shovel it onto the street this weekend.
Then I’ll take my daughter outside, barelegged, and snap her annual Easter photos. We always like to involve our pet bunny. But a chick would do nicely, too…

If someone wants a robin, there has been one throwing itself against my window literally every few seconds since yesterday afternoon (it took a break last night when it got dark). It’s not as cute as the chick but still . . . I throw in some magnolia blossoms (it’s coming close!) and crocus too!
