Spring tease

Snow snow...as much as I love thee...please go away and come back in November. I can't wait for the spring time buds to appear! Today I've been doing some sewing...plugging away at my almost endless pile of apron neck ties...when I looked over and noticed the beautiful buds on my orchid. It has been a couple of months since my orchid had flowers, so this is exciting! Even though it is an orchid and is not native to the Ontario motherland, it sure is a nice reminder of what spring will be bringing us.

I'll have a hot cup of tea please...

Oh boy...we're supposed to get more snow tonight and tomorrow. As much as I love the white stuff, I'm starting to miss the green stuff...and we have at least 3 months left of winter! Actually, there really isn't one season I dislike. Each of them has their own splendid character. I love that cozy feeling I get when coming in from the winter cold...when the heat warms my chilly cheeks...you know that really neat burning feeling? You don't get that in Summer. And how about those snow angels? Imagine making one in the sand? Ouch! I don't think so. What I really appreciate are the home-cooked comfort foods - like stew - and, even more, a hot cup of tea....ahhhh...
