pinks

I was amazed today to notice that the colors of the landscape are changing. First it was the yellows of forsythia and daffodils and such. Now pinks and reds are painting their way into the background. Tulips, crab apples, maples, dogwoods, hyacinths...it's all so lovely.

And every day I notice more and more leaves and less and less bare brown sticks. Soon there will be a lushness to the landscape again. I always love this time of year. I swear you can almost smell the greeness of it all.

Plus! Today is the day my favorite local nursery opens. Victoria's Herb Garden. She always has such lovely stuff and she and Rodney are great people. Time to head on over and see what she's got blooming this now.
