Spring!!!

At last -- 

Something in my sightline that doesn't make me actively depressed!

Hello, warm weather and green grass and beer on the deck and all that.

For today, at least.

Tomorrow it's supposed to be rainy and cold.

WHY HAS THIS WINTER BEEN SO DAMNED LONG???

SERIOUSLY.

IT'S BEEN LIKE EIGHT MONTHS.

But anyway, today I planted some of the loveliest geraniums I've ever seen, and some seeds for tomatoes, serranos,  eggplant, and papayas.

I don't have any idea how to grow papayas, but I guess we'll find out. 

As for Spring, regular readers might know I have a traditional meal of peas and mint and eggs. And you also know that I always forget when the vernal equinox is coming up. Which makes me a very bad witch. 

So this year I just went with this: 

Which I think is pretty darn springy.

aaaand, it's still in the high 30's right now. 

What the hell?
