Time Travel

Hey there,

Welcome to the kitchen of Chartreuse Monkey.  Very diner-style no?  I do run a very busy VIRTUAL diner mind you but this one is just as cozy.  Thank you for the visit!

I'll get the beverages.  Lemon cranberry scone?  Oh yes, me too.

I love this time of year ESPECIALLY after what seemed like an endless winter.  For the record, I could copy and paste this line into my April 22, 2011 blog because I will feel EXACTLY the same.  That's Canada-speak for "Spring! What took you so long?!"

Oh sure we had the Olympics this year...BAZINGA...bonus points for mentioning the Olympics again!  That was a wonderful time and gave us Canucks a big goofy grin for weeks.  CROSBY..HE SCORES!!! See? Still smiling.

I love seeing the flowers starting to bloom - tulips especially - and the bikes lining the roadways.  Especially retro bikes because there are so many days that I wish I still had my navy mustang with the blue sparkly banana seat and white fringes hanging from the handle bars!  Oh 1971, I miss you so! Hmmm...note to self, check to see if you can still get said bicycle from Craigslist....

I'm very lucky that I don't suffer from seasonal allergies so the scent of freshly mowed grass is heaven!!!

It's great when everyone starts wearing bright colours, patterns, and anything that isn't downfilled.  While I miss the monkey hats, I am looking for some spring hats instead! 

What spring-time sights make you smile?
