That seemingly endless winter kicked my butt. Even in the Canadian tropics (Hamilton) it was relentless. Now that Spring is here I am eager to get rid of all signs of winter in anticipation of warmer temperatures. So, out with the evergreens and in with the forsythia!

These faux branches I picked up at Dollarama will do the trick for the next month or so until the temperatures are warm enough for real plants to survive. The trick is to have a full arrangement. Skinny, puny arrangements look sad. GO BIG OR GO HOME.
