One of our local weathermen loves to use the term "filtered sunshine."
today - blissfully rainy and grey, perfect for crawling in my reading sofa with hot cocoa, cheese and a great book.
LOL! I'm a cheese lover ... ;o) I love tea too, well herbal teas mostly, my favorites Manzanilla and Mint, and orange blossom.
orange blossom time
Yes, in old houses. I have a cut glass vase with a handle that is heavy as lead. Wintry mix is often used in Phila. weather forecasts - rain, changing to snow to sleeet and often back to snow. I like the Pittsburgh way of describing icy roads as slippy.
Richard, they used laudanum, too. Stay away from that kind of thing. Having the "Vapors" often used as an excuse for not appearing at undesired social gatherings is a better choice. Nothing ingested or inhaled. Ladies seemed to do well with it. Why not men if they choose?
Favorite Irish blessing - May the road rise to meet you, May the sun shine warm upon your face, And the rains fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again , May God hold you in the palm of his hand.
extremely cold out today! Yuck!
Because it was a new topic and I was pouring out my frustration with long winter while looking for spring.
Ken, I'll look for Valerian next time I'm at the market. Do you know if they have an organic line to their teas?
Emilee, it is very cold here today in IL. I even heard mention of SNOW. My husband and I are about to move our table and chairs off the patio and back into the garage. I knew we put them out too early. I wish spring could be spring around here.
Singing in the rain. Spring rain. Birds building nests.
This is the first time I have been in the UK in spring for probably 20 years. I'd forgotten the beauty of daffodills and trees in pink and white blossom and the heady scent of hyacinths. Unfortunately I'm looking at all this in a garden outside of my mother's room in a hospice. Walking through the gardens though I keep thinking these are the skybluecold days, not the beginning but the ending of time.
I've heard promising described by the weatherman before. Strange.
good one. Today our weather was:dank
HOT!!! I love in AZ, and it's getting hot out here! I am NOT loking forward to the 120's again! LMAO
So dry the air crackles. (too many words, but so true)
Richard wrote: "you have a weatherman who speaks in early english?"Nope. Lived in Oklahoma for 18 years. Very common term there in the spring and fall.
I don't know. Let me consult one of their salt water taffy makers and see what it looks like from the boardwalk.flood warnings (for next 48 hr.)

In Illinois this winter we have had a ground blizzard and freezing fog.
