I feel quite safe in saying that spring is finally here now! A few weeks ago, I kept wanting to proclaim it's arrival from the rooftops, but then I was always scared that the mercury would plummet again and I'd have jinxed the good weather. Now that April is nearly over, it feels like Spring is securely here. I love how it stays light so late and I know that my birthday is just around the corner... (it's in July but I get so excited about it!). I've also been making fresh hummus and fresh pesto, spring just makes me love making fresh food and eating healthier.
Things I love to do in Spring:
- Take photos of cute daffodils. I don't think there are any cuter flowers than daffodils!
- Mow the lawn. I don't know why, but I've been obsessed with mowing our lawn. I love the fresh cut grass smell and seeing it turn vivid green, but it's also good exercise.
- Walk the dogs.
- Make fresh food. I've been making fresh home-made burgers, hummus, pesto and of course cakes too.
- Have premature BBQs, then rush inside once the sun goes in because it gets too cold to stay outside!
- Read in the sunshine.
This weekend I'm going on a day trip on a canal boat for Scott's Mum's birthday, so hopefully I can add that to my list of things I love to do in spring! It will remind me of Rosie & Jim. What do you love to do in Spring?
Reading in the sunshine, BBQs in the gathering dusk and making fresh food are some of my favourite things about warmer weather. And I ADORE daffs! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this post! Spring is the most hopeful thing in the world, it makes me so happy. Fresh food and grass (minus pollen) and two of my favourite things too :D

ReplyDeleteI love spring too, the premature BBQ suggestion sounds very familar! I love being able to sit in beer gardens til late,chatting with only a cardi to cover your shoulders....
ReplyDeleteLovely post :)
ReplyDeleteSpring is my favourite season by far. I like to wander round looking at spring flowers and blossom trees, start making salads to eat outside, enjoy a spot of afternoon drinking in the sunshine and bust out some of my more summery clothing and sandals.
Wow, the BBQ anecdote sounded far too familiar!! I definitely enjoy seeing everything come to life again; everything and everyone seems so bright and cheery... you can just about sense summer approaching. Yay!
