Winter wilt
outside and in
we want for spirit
vitamin
our best mind games
do not suffice
to rise above
the dark and ice
thus the need
for coffee and blog
old plaid flannels
a seed catalog.

That’s a pretty little heuchera. Coffee, blog and seed catalogue should do the trick. I was tempted to drive down to a garden yesterday which is only open a few days each year but allowed the weather to put me off. It’s rain plus brief bouts of hail and snow at the moment, though I imagine nothing that would be worth mentioning by your standards.

Rain, hail, and snow? Definitely worth mentioning! Our specialty this weekend is freezing rain. It’s quite a glossy glassy world out my windows. An occasional car crawls by. I’d vote with you on postponing the visit to the garden — that cold rain sounds miserable.

The freezing rain sounds a little scary, especially if you’re in a car.

Absolutely! I doubt that anyone is driving today except with serious reason; it’s just too easy to lose control.

Perfect – good coffee, warm flannels, and a seed catalog. My kind of winter recipe. 🙂

Those of us who know winter also know how to escape from it! I grew up in Chicago winters, which might not be quite as bad as New England winters but certainly taught me the virtues of flannel!
