As the weather warms up and the days get warmer, I thought I would share five things I love about Spring:
1. Nature coming to life after the depths of Winter, like my good friend here, the hibiscus. 2. Longer days - its still light when I leave work and I can't tell you how exciting that feels. Running group is not just a string of lights spread along the path. There is birdcall as I wake... 3. Getting outside - sunshine, walking, doggie walking, running, gardening. Most exciting: swimming. Had my first lap swim in ages the other day and it was great. 4. The joy of new life at the farm - last count we had two of this years calves, with more expected every week. 5. Salads! Don't get me wrong, I love a cooked vegetable, but I love the return of salad to our weeknight rotation. Every September, I hit the library up and see what's new in salad recipes. This year the wet weather drowned all of my herbs, so spring will also bring some new herbs to the garden, ready for salad season. What are you looking forward to as we dive into Spring? |
