>We look set for a continuation of the wintry weather that’s been besieging us this last while. I do like a nice spot of winter, but on the other hand I can’t wait for spring. Not necessarily the full-blown late spring glory of May, but just as much the subtle change that begins in late February or early March, when the first spring blossoms creep out of the ground and mark the beginning of the end of winter.
And I look forward to building cold frames and sowing seeds and watching some things grow and others doing absolutely nothing and generally just getting out and DOING stuff in the garden. Making things happen.
Anyway, with that said, here’s to the Advent of Christmas and my husband’s return to Denmark for 10 days that will include a family Christmas, days alone in the summer house and a viewing of the flat we just bought here in Copenhagen.
>I get a little crazy in the winter, I can't work in my garden, and that, I don't like.
>Beautiful advent centerpiece! I think my patience with winter tends to disappear just about the time I need to pack up all the holiday decorations…
