I was about to give up hope, but FINALLY it is
FRIDAY!
and
Spring Has Arrived!
By tradition, we welcome the first day of spring on March 21, but this year the spring season starts much earlier, March 19th, the earliest arrival in more than a century. It is also interesting to note that spring will begin on March 19th every leap year for the rest of this century.
Favorite # ONE
Spring
These are my daylillies and weeds.
I hope you had a happy first day of spring!
For those of us who have become weary of the winter’s darkness, the new season brings the promise of longer days, increasing warmth, a burst of flowers and more time outdoors.
With all our attention on the novel coronavirus, the new season seems to have arrived completely unnoticed.
Another event that was nearly disregarded has always been a favorite
Favorite # TWO
St. Patrick’s Day
With restaurants closing and social distancing being the new normal, LB and I stayed home to observe the day…
just the two of us
We made an Irish-American dinner, danced in the kitchen, and planned to watch the movie Leap Year. Instead we watched Peppermint, which is replete with action and violence, has absolutely nothing to do with being Irish, and is not a Friday favorite.
However I DO recommend
Favorite # THREE
Leap Year
with Amy Adams and Matthew Goode
Yes, Amy Adams, you ARE going to Dublin!
We’ve watched it three times this year y’all!
Adorable and Highly recommended!

Let’s talk about what is really important.
The people we love.
All of my favorite people are currently healthy. Mama is next door and doing fine. My sister Gina and her family are close by and, at this time, all healthy. Richard and his family are healthy in Charleston. My girls are healthy and stopped by tonight for an arms-length delivery (of course) of a homemade blueberry pie.
