First Day + Candles

First day back to school for a whole bunch of Brookline little citizens....and on a wet, rainy day, no less.  After a gloriously sunny, summer-y weekend, the rain today makes the walk to school feel maybe a little more welcoming,  I would imagine.  I know my two were very excited about today, crazy school-loving knuckleheads that they are.

And non-sequitor:  I thought I'd commemorate today with a soy candle.  Cedar Moss seemed to make the most sense today.   Soft, warm, and perfumed.  Just seemed to make sense.  School and candles, right?

Where my mind tends to go on these snowy days.  All images and other floral magic can be found by visiting SAIPUA.

It's here - for the time being, anyway.

Spring.

Technically not until March 20, 1:32pm does the March equinox occur but with the abundant sunshine we're experiencing in Boston there's proof that it's dropping by for a while.

I've spotted these snowbells, snowdrops, Galanthus nivalis aplenty on my daily runs -small, little harbingers that they are.
