the sun is out

spring has been on the calendar
for a month already.
but snow has an almost constant
visitor this month.
Today the sun is out. Spring is here.
the snow is working hard at becoming a mere memory.

even though we had a nasty weather-week, now
It's warm enough now to sit outside without shivering.

there were no posies for easter in Montreal

We had a lot of fresh snow
in time for Easter Weekend
here in montreal.

I knew you'd understand.

some Recent Updates

a few photos to update
you with my life.
Since the first of the month,
we've had fresh snow. Several times.
Here, you can see the
view from my hotel room
recently, in Quebec City.
it's four hours drive from my city. and they'd just
had 35 cm of fresh snow the day before my arrival.




For my birthday, i received some
lovely silk/cotton yarn, that i've been
making into a springtime scarf.
Perfect for those days when you don't need your
winter coat - yet it's cool enough to warrant
something with your Spring time coat.
Something other than a big Wooly scarf.



Last week, just before our most RECENT
snow fall, i bought myself this tiny pot
of daffodils, for my kitchen window sill.
A nice reminder of Spring.
Especially nice to look upon since we've had
over 12 cm of snow since then!
