Snow.

1. It snowed. Second day of spring and it snowed....

2. Someone has been adding to the glove collection. (Wasn't me)

3. We won the quiz. A knowledge of bears in literature including Rupert, Paddington, Baloo, Winnie and Old Bear from Jane Hissey helped. 

4. My book has arrived. Oh the delight of a book I have not held in thirty years. The illustrations. The memories. I am beside myself. I cannot remember the last time I was so joyous over a simple thing. 

Once Long Ago. Folk and Fairy Tales of the World. Retold by Roger Lancelyn Green.
