My parents dropped by to visit, today. We had a nice chat from the length of my entry stairs away. They brought me tequila, and I sent them off with muffins, which is really just such a capsule of the current world that I have to laugh.

Also, Zingerman's now has cocktail cherries which are smoked cherries in whiskey syrup, and I may just have to invent a cocktail worthy of getting some.

NGL, I find it appealingly ironic that this year, when people are, alternately, locked indoors and can't see it or desperate to get outdoors for just a while and see it, we are having a properly sequenced spring, for once. Steady warming through March, interrupted by five inches of snow toward the end that melted off in two days. Wild up and down in April. The trees are all budding out, the willows are green, the forsythia are flowering, and we had hail this morning. The seasonal ponds and pools are all full, everywhere with grass or hay is very green, and it's so blustery that I nearly got pushed onto the shoulder twice during my battery-charging drive today.

Spring!

ETA: And then we had another hail storm and a sun-blizzard. Spring!

(At least in Michigan.)
