Spring coming to our Air

Spring is here in April and Easter is Just around the Corner

It's that time again ,another monthly Catchup but at least we are the Spring Season. Where we start see the ground beneath our feet turn into greenery around the world. The daily quarantine

walks around will be filled with fresh grass appearing , the sprouting daffodils showing signs of spring and the reminder that Easter is around the corner. I am not going to lie the spring season is exciting to me because it feels the year just begun, the feeling of a fresh start in the air. Does anyone else agree ? Spring just feels like a the beginning to what last year was and what we have been searching for.

By that being said it's April first , the day of jokes to kick off the month. Now I must say, I come from a family of pranksters so this day was a necessary moment of the day to get someone back . But that being said I haven't pulled a prank in a couple years and to be honest I kind of miss the planning of a prank but not the clean up of one . I once took everyone's left or right shoe of another pair of shoes that was in the house. And yes, that was a lot of shoes to hide away and get away with going into other's closets without anyone knowing. It took a long time to take all those without making a closet looking undisturbed. That had to be the most time consuming of a prank. Over the years I think we all grew up in the sense that .. No pulls joke on anyone specially what we are going through collectively. But we all need a good laugh once in a while, So I say lets keep the pranks only on this day and end by mid day.

Today being the first day of April, is the perfect day in the start of the spring season. The weather is perfect the only thing missing a beach and close friends. But being underneath clear skies and seventy degree weather with a light breeze, I will take any day. I am kind of tempted to pull out my swim wear, a beach towel, a playlist playing in the background and picking up good book after I finish this up. What would you do if your perfect weather outside and you are just finishing up your workday? Speaking of a good book , I have two new book reviews coming out this month and yes I am excited to share them with you. They are two Robin Carr novels back to back and I was too tempted to not find out what happen before I even typed up book number two book's review , that's why there was has been a little delay. What I will be reading next two novels by written friends that have on list for a while and I can't wait to share them to! Side note , I will be adding a link to those reviews to the bottom of this post.

Since the season of me working on other things have come to the end for the most part , I am excited to coming back to my work in full force. And you have no idea, I have stories that I want to be share, my book to be finally finished. Now since I have more time on my hands that I hope I can the distraction that people need or a little pick me up here and there. I know I have a back long of pictures to go through and edit a few. Also those long go trips that I never shared before will be added along the way. San Francisco trips, the Sierras trips and the many seaside's trips, it's time to share those memories, the must go to coffee shops and of course the yummy food that was beyond.

Let's Talk about Easter Sunday for a minute. This holiday is probably one of the fondest memories I share with my Nene and my family. Too much food made on this holiday , I am not kidding it's more food than Thanksgiving across the dinning table. One of my favorite memories is the egg game that we play around the table basically called , "The Egg War". Where the best egg wins and you are called the lucky person. I am usually out of the game by the third round, I egg usually get's cracked my the other person by that time. One of the fondest memory that I have , that game always bring out the best and the worst of some people but full of laughs either way. I always looked forward seeing my Nene on this holiday and making dishes along side her. For example making Ohtcheh, it seems so easy to make. But making it on my own this year and I am going to share that my first attempt was a fail but it was close to her's. I can taste my favorite thing she would make for me each time she was her Eetch which is can be eaten like a salad or dip. As I type this part of the post, I wish was here so she could tell me her recipe because somehow the handwritten recipe I wrote down the last she was here as walked away. I have only made it once under direction in the kitchen next to me. I can see her in the apron that's hanging in the pantry and pink rose slippers tell me to get the mixer and to make sure the pot doesn't boil over. The million carton of colored of eggs that my little cousins made. The many tubs of food she already prepared at her house that sneaked their little way to the refrigerator . And the handmade cheese she made from the week , I never learned that from her but I loved watching her hand make them and make the knot twists. I miss her everyday, the smell of her kitchen and her laugh the most.

To close this off on a good note and Good Friday is ahead of us. And we can all laugh for a minute, I will be attempting to make Eetch and Ohtcheh again and I am sure I will miss something but I know that I am doing this for her, to keep her love around not just me but all of us. I know that would bring her a bit of joy minus that Fact I am still unmarried she would say in her English way. "No money , No hunny and You need to make food " . I hear her voice just now that makes me smile.

Changing gears up and so we all don't get to sappy at this point , I do have more good news! And you haven't misread has been looking different lately , there has been some layout changes and more changes are coming and a brand new element is coming. I do have a few surprises in store and they are coming as well but I just can't tell you about them in this present moment. They are coming! Happy Easter ! Happy Little spring ! Happy Good Friday !

Remember you loved, you are special and more !

With love always,
