Spring is here, with great ferocity

So the first couple of days of spring were all about snow, wind, general oh, not this againness.

However, I looked out this morning, as I was getting up the gumption to go out and shovel off my car, and saw my blessed neighbor and friend, already hard at work.  

Reason #345,742 why I like living here.   And it's why, in a neighborhood like this, when you live alone, you don't cook for one!  Little samples go all over the place.  My lemon ginger marmalade got good reviews.
