I can make it be spring, with simple willpower

On the weekend we had a party on our street. I hosted the dessert portion. (We go from house to house because we are very cool like that.)

With a shake of the pink sugar, my lemon cake became pretty and spring-like.


And I got some pink tulips from the shop on the corner, to pretend that flowers might one day grow here.



And you see, it's sunny enough to take the flowers outside for a photoshoot. Not warm, though. We might get a high of -7C today.

I see there's less than 2 weeks till we go away to sun and fun. Must go find my stash of sleeveless tops! They must be here somewhere.

    Eeep to -7 at least we are above zero now - but the cake and the tulips are nice and cheerful (and yes spring like!)
