It's been in the mid to upper 60s this week, with a brisk breeze.
Spring is definitely here!
Despite the frosty temps and snow flurries, we put up our Easter Egg tree on Sunday (blown, hand painted eggs hung on pussy-willow branches). Very traditional. Sipped a glass of the local sparkling wine (sekt) and listened to Bach as we decorated.
