Signs of Spring in February 2024
…with milder temperatures and rain instead of snow we’re seeing buds, sprouts and even flowers
In many parts of the world this is hardly unusual but it’s very unusual in Toronto to see signs of spring this early.



Tonight the temperatures are dropping by 20 celsius degrees, +9 to -11. Earlier today I was overdressed and when I went out later in the day I quickly felt how much the temperatures were dropping and I was very much underdressed.

Love is in the Air
…leading up to, on the day and the day after Valentine’s Day
Everywhere you look there are signs for this special day.





I’m not one for big, expensive fancy gifts. I’m more about the kind gestures and thoughtful cards with expressions of love. In the past my husband has hand painted me some fun cards. This year he posted a special card for our grandchildren. For me he made a very special dinner, with a cocktail before dinner and wine with dinner.
