Springtime Itch

As I've gotten older I appreciate and enjoy Winter more. I'm a big fan of hibernating indoors with hot drinks, blankets, and wearing layers upon layers. But it comes to a point when I start to long for sunshine, a warm breeze, and opening up my windows to let in fresh air. I'm at that point.

This past weekend we went to Hamilton to visit family and friends. There was barely any snow on the ground and the weather hit a high of 17 degrees Celsius on Sunday which melted any lingering snow. It felt so nice! I went outside in my cardigan and you could smell barbecues throughout the neighbourhood. We then came home Monday to a foot of snow in our driveway and this morning we woke up to more. We've been home less than 3 days and we've already shoveled twice. 

This is why I'm done with Winter and longing for Spring. I had a preview of it this past weekend and I'm so ready for it!

I know it's going to take a while for all the snow to melt and go away, and really, we don't want it to go away too fast or we'll be dealing with flooding throughout the city. But the fact that we are supposed to be above 0 degrees next week for a few days has me happy. 

This is my Springtime inspiration right now:

What I'm Loving Now

February is almost over and I have the Springtime itch... I want sunny days, open windows, no more Winter coats. I blame retail. The stores are starting to fill up with camping gear, gardening supplies, and lots of pastels for Easter.

Make Me Like You

Then, there's Gwen Stefani's new single - Make Me Like You. I'm addicted and it's the perfect song for nice weather. My excitement to play this song (and her entire new album) while driving with my car windows down this Spring is strong! 


Broad City

 Between social media and one of my best friends, this show kept being recommended to me. I watched the first season and I loved it. It took a couple of episodes to grow on me but by the end of the season I really liked Abbi and Ilana. I'm looking forward to starting the second season to see more of their adventures.


"Broad City follows two women throughout their daily lives in New York City, making the smallest and mundane events hysterical and disturbing to watch all at the same time."

What have you been loving lately?
