just around the corner...

There may be a winter weather advisory warning out right now, but this came in the mail last week:


I'm aware there's still a month until Winter ends, but nothing says Spring more than flipping through the Lee Valley catalogue and salivating over garden tools. Can't quite pull out the ole spade yet though, so to compensate I drew some little peonies instead.



And some poetry for good measure:

Again rejoicing Nature sees
Her robe assume its vernal hues
Her leafy locks wave in the breeze
All freshly steep'd in morning dews...

- Robert Burns, Composed In Spring (1786)
