walking to work or spring time in portland
I have to work on Easter.
What's up with that?
For some reason I just don't think a toy store will be busy on Easter morning.
Okay, done with rant.
I love spring here. Everything is blooming so bright against the grey sky. It's so vibrant and smells divine.
I made chocolate granola last night-recipe from Molly.
It was pretty good-I left in the oven a little too long, but hey not bad with milk.
I want to visit here (thanks katie)
and here .
Hope you all have a great holiday weekend!
lovely photos of spring here in portland. I am so happy it is finally here! I can't wait to go to the tulip festival, we go every year and the color is just fantastic. :) Have a wonderful weekend!

I saw these on your Flickr feed and had to come say Happy Spring. Those brooms are great.
