Next week when April 2026 begins, I think it will be nice to start the first day with a moment of thanks that Winter 2026 is really over. A long cold and snowy Winter is comforting in that it is a winter being winter.
However, the brain wants the warmth, the sunshine, blue skies. That sounds poetic. April is Poetry Month.

I know what you mean about April. We've had snow and ice before -- but rarely and it truly does feel like spring.
ReplyDeleteJeanie,
DeleteSnow in Spring is sugar snow, named for maple sugaring time. Y’all have sugar ice as well.
The 55°F temperature here yesterday still had a tint of chill in the air.
Now it is wear the right jacket weather. 😂

A year ago we were dealing with a huge ice storm so I doubt we're out of the woods yet. I never feel that winter is fully done until mid-May and even then it can come back and bite me.
ReplyDeleteMaryanne, Good point. Ice storms can still be around.

The UK has had sunshine, rain, hailstones and some areas snow!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing mixed weather Spring brings ... but I still like the season.
Very nice photograph of the spider plant and basket.
All the best Jan
Jan,
DeleteWintery mix is often heard in spring. It isn't the best weather report to hear.
I'm going to enjoy being indoors when it happens.

Parsely is good that way. Cilantro works too. Yum. With cashews.
ReplyDeleteBaked herbed veggies sound delicious. I'll give that a try soon. Cool photo.
