In the pink

It still looks like winter and feels like winter, but somehow a hint of spring was in the air today. I'm not sure what made the difference. Maybe just the turning of the calendar from February to March, the symbolic turning over a new leaf, the herald of a new season approaching.

At any rate, I would say that people seemed happier today. I was busy with a group at church - women preparing apple crisp, men cooking sausages (interesting split along gender lines) - getting ready for tomorrow's pancake supper (our Shrove Tuesday tradition) and the mood was cheery and downright springlike.

So we ended the day with a treat, a supper out with a view of the sunset over the harbour. It feels good to be back in the pink again!
