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.
