Rejoice in Spring

Science has never drummed up quite as effective a tranquilizing agent as a sunny spring day. ~ W. Earl Hall

Magical Season

Consider me tranquilized by the spring day. Tranquil, at peace, rested. Today has been absolutely gorgeous from beginning to end. Balmy temperature, blue skies, fluffy white clouds, new green leaves adorning all the trees, and golden sunshine.

Larry and I sat by the lake and had our morning coffee. A giant blue heron flew in and landed on Duck Island. About 3 dozen Mexican Whistler ducks are still here along with the resident goose and a trio of white ducks.

I indulged my love of cooking by creating an old-fashioned roast beef dinner with all the trimmings. I don't usually cook big meals unless we have guests so Larry was quite pleased. Like most men, he loves good food, especially if it includes beef--and mashed potatoes and gravy. Oh, and let's not forget the Strawberry Cheesecake Cupcakes.

Takeaway Truth

Everyone needs a day like today with perfect spring weather, good food, and wonderful companionship. These are the days that make the drab days bearable.
