It's the middle of March....

Frances and I went to Union Square and, lo and behold!Pansies...

and primulas

the first of the season.

Anemones wrapped in green paper

and narcissus

and poppies that must have been grown indoors - but never mind.

Oddly, there were very aged squash that must have overwintered somewhere

and antique carrots beginning to sprout. After all this excitement we needed a snack

because even though it was bright, it was cold.
