Spring Is Here!


We had thought winter would never end. The Christmas cactus thought so, too, and decided to bloom again.


Outside, though, we see that spring has come at last. Daffodils are blooming and purple anemones make dots of color in the grass.


Due to the bitterly cold winter, lettuce seedlings in the cold frame did not survive, but Dennis replanted, and today he harvested the first thinnings.


We relished a lettuce thinnings salad for supper, rejoicing that we seem to be free of winter’s clutches at last.
