Grace & Connie have followed through and done their part here on our blog but I’ve been a slacker — so I thought I’d better jump in and participate, too! In my “other life” I write for a living (I help manage a grantwriting business) — so the last thing I feel like doing is more writing or doing anything that has anything to do with writing, but, I guess a few more words won’t hurt me!

So. It’s almost spring. Doesn’t feel like it though, does it? Doesn’t look like it either. It seems like everything that sprung up during that warm weather (now so long ago), is trying real hard to stick around and stay green through this cold, cold spell. I admire its fortitude.

Easter has come and gone and I now pride myself on practicing self-restraint through this season of chocolate bunnies, Peeps & jelly beans. (No chocolate bunnies, no jelly beans, and only one package of Peeps!)

Speaking of Peeps. Yes, I’m a Peep person. Part of the Peep-cult. But I only eat the original yellow chicks, and only around this time of year, and, oh, yes, I do like them stale, but just slightly stale I recently discovered. (I did an experiment with this last package and left the cellophane open for a day longer to let them get really stale — BIG mistake!) They just got all hard and crunchy and the middle marshmallow stuff just sort of disappeared…… OK, I’m spending way too much time talking about Peeps! Enough of that!

Back to some real writing!
