Yesterday was a very big day…a very big day indeed! I had gone to the store (along with half the city) to stock up on some provisions. We were expecting more snow, and we got a couple more inches by this morning. I was rather depressed about this and needing a reminder of spring. Joyfully, the store had a shipment of hyacinths and daffodils!! I just about wept with pleasure and relief and this beautiful sign of spring.
I swept down on them like a hawk, inhaling the perfume of the hyacinths and petting the sunny daffodils, and generally worrying everyone in a 50 foot radius that a crazy woman was loose. But I did not care because finally the first sweet blooms of spring were here! Naturally a hyacinth came home. It is sitting in a place of honor on the kitchen counter sweetly scenting the room and reminding me of the pleasures of new life at work under the blanket of snow.
Blessings to you,
Sarah
