It was time. While I loved the old picture on the top of my blog (is that called a banner?), I needed a change. For the last week or two, I keep having images of spring in my mind. And I don't even love spring, which brings on incredible pollen allergies. But spring leads to summer, which leads to vacation and warmth (if not like last summer's cold wet misery), swimming and hiking and biking and running. I love winter too, but I'm ready for the transition. So, this new banner is in anticipation of spring, and green...and fiddlehead ferns.
I'm in such a good mood today, despite being the third cloudy day in a row. It's snowing a bit, I'm on vacation, we leave for Montreal in just a few days (here we come good skiing, yummy food, and new sites to check out!), I've been lazing around the last two days drinking tea and catching up on books, going for walks, and I've been getting eight to nine hours of sleep each night. We're having friends over for pizza tonight. What could be better?
If you haven't checked out Mark Bittman's latest article on comparing soda drinking to cigarette smoking, it's worth a read. He brings up a lot of points that people I know have been talking about for years; now it's time for something to happen politically.
