Think Spring

I hope every body had a thrilling Valentine's Day.  We always decide that we are not going to make a big fuss and then change our minds at the very last possible moment.  Thus, the kitchen scene yesterday morning as Grace suddenly had a surge of cupcake inspiration.  All good and most appreciated, however.

 

Nothing wrong with homemade chocolate cake and organic candy bars for breakfast now is there?  I'm kidding of course.  We actually waited a respectable moment or two after breakfast to sample them.  The cyclamen and African violets are for the girl's bathroom.  There's a huge skylight that showers down the most wonderful indirect light, making it the best hot house you can imagine.  (I'd try growing tomatoes in there if I could get away with it.)

And there were pretty flowers in an array of colors from the Mister that filled my heart and sent my mind wandering to Spring.

 

It feels a long way off sometimes, but I know it's coming.  Any day now....
