We've had a somewhat mild winter so far, with a small amount of snow in December followed by lots of rain and clouds. I was kind of enjoying thinking we'd pretty much skipped winter this year. Then, of course, the cold air returned this week.
Just before, though, I grabbed a small pot with two small pink primrose plants from the back deck and brought it indoors. This will be my tiny taste of springtime, even with snow on the ground outside by late this week.
I have neighbors with crocus and forsythia in bloom. I think we were all thinking winter had skipped us this year.
I'll enjoy my primrose sitting on the windowsill until real spring comes.
