Spring in the garden: hahahahahaha

Spring has sprung, right?
That said, we badly need the moisture, so this is all fine.

That part yesterday, in which I said I was planning to do some pruning today while it was cold and the yellow jackets were hunkered down? That was when the prediction was "mostly rain, turning to snow, accumulating 1-3 inches." That has since been upgraded to "7-13.5 inches, blizzard conditions." So scrap that plan.

Instead I will be hunkered down, myself, with a cup of red tea and the most recent No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency book (The Woman Who Walked in the Sunshine). I haven't decided if this counts for "Read Around the World," and if so, for which country--for those who don't know, the series is set in Botswana, written by an Anglo guy who spent much of his life in Botswana but now resides in Scotland.

There is also a distinct possibility that some cupcakes, muffins, scones, or similar tasty baked treats will be crafted, and consumed, today. Stay tuned.
