strawberry plants and spring bulbs, oh, how I love you
Finally, the time when we can begin to stir again. On the first day of spring, I welcome you with an open heart.
I made myself do yard work for an hour, a promise that pays off in spades. Like any good project, you can get swept up and lose track of time once you start. It’s the starting that is the challenge.
Mise en place for bolognese sauce for tomorrow’s lasagna. I know, lasagna in spring, yet the three grands are coming for dinner, and it’s still pretty cold out there. I have been creating menus that can be prepared beforehand so that I can enjoy the people around me and not constantly be in the kitchen. Also, I have been using store-bought bone broth instead of store-bought beef broth to increase the protein value. I’ve been all about this pearl midi-skirt and have been wearing it constantly, both here in Buffalo, NY, and in St. Petersburg, FL. Once home, I immediately changed into this other matched set, this one a gift from my two eldest daughters for Christmas.
More exciting activities were prepping the sauce for tomorrow’s lasagna, dressing up for a political fundraiser downtown, and undressing myself once I got home.
Grateful for the longer days. Wishing everyone brightness and the confidence to begin again, whatever that may be for you.
