What a nice stretch of weather. You can feel your shoulders starting to un-hunch. Yes, we'll have more cold rain in March, but the (relative) warmth this week is wonderful. I've been outside as much as possible getting an early start, pruning and cleaning the beds, transplanting the winners and pulling out loser plants.
We have to pick our garden battles now, because Seattle summers are becoming hot and dry. The lush, 6-foot lily days are gone and the garden is slowly transitioning into something different, still beautiful but more practical. Besides, I want to spend time in Twisp this summer-- a person can only do so much.
Spring weather also means lighter food. Yea. I've been ordering this winter from Costco online. It's a royal pain getting to the warehouse with our bridge still out of commission. The short drive turned into 45 minutes of stop and go traffic. And the virus...
Anyway, I ordered frozen food for the first time last week. Costco shrimp and fish are good, and I threw in a bag of frozen won tons to meet the minimum for free delivery. It all arrived on the porch just fine, but with an astonishing, embarrassing amount of packaging. Never again.
I notice you have also augmented your Churchill with appropriate pieces of blue and white ware, notably bowls. Much as I love it, the Churchill Blue Willow set is notably lacking in appropriate bowls for cereal and deep soup bowls.
