Spring, Food
Happy First Day of #Spring! In my part of the world, I won't see flowers open for about another month, but here are some of my favourite early-bloomers!
For #spring, my little snowdrop. It glows softly (there's a light in the flower), but its glow is best seen at night. See the second pic for a bit of the glow.
I haven’t shared much about this piece yet - maybe because it’s a little different from my usual embroidery work. But I like how delicate it turned out.

20 March: #SpringEquinox AND #WorldFrogDay AND #WorldRewildingDay —so much to celebrate! What should jump to mind?
That while most of the world's conservation funding goes to large, charismatic animals, amphibians are more threatened than any other group of vertebrates!
Spring has sprung! This is the Honey Bee from the Everyday Witch's Familiars Oracle illustrated by me, written by Deborah Blake, published by Llewellyn.
While you patiently wait for the Whimsy Woods Tarot deck, you can check out our Everyday Witch's Familiars oracle deck! Whimsy Woods will be our fourth deck together.

It's officially the first day of Spring 2025, and today I spotted this fully decorated Christmas tree on a balcony in Glasgow!
Happy #SpringEquinox to all who celebrate it.
It's the Spring Equinox, the day where we celebrate the music of Jean-Michel Jarre
This is the place to look for that #education article tomorrow… well worth reading. I’ll add the link to my website as well and I’ve already congratulated the author who has the good taste to nail the #springequinox this year for a birthday
So double reasons to celebrate & add the below to the singing…

#springequinox was about 1 hour ago
I’m checking the #weatherreport & tonight is supposed to be the last night of frost for awhile. Already +8°C on the north, shady side of the house
Yesterday was spent sorting delivery of fresh veggies and fruit + translating a text for a Swe net magazine
Today I have curated my website for coming Sunday
Waiting before I go outside to document the state of my garden, making some coffee…

Happy equinox!
On yesterday's neighborhood walk, there was a lawn just covered with early crocuses (𝘊𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘴):
FOOD FOR THE EQUINOX
Food plays an important roll at Higan (彼岸 - the equinox).
On the first and last day of the equinoctial week, rice dumplings (団子 'dango') are offered at the family altar.
Rice cakes covered in bean jam (botamochi in spring and ohagi in fall) are presented mid-week.
In the past 'Higan-no-Nakaba' (彼岸の半ば 'Middle of the Equinoctial Week') was a time for visiting graves to honour ancestors.
It was also a time for spring cleaning and for making important changes (such as beginning a new hobby or finishing an important project).
We're about 15 days out from the #equinox , still have time to plan!
I know it's probably flattering to deceive, but it feels warm out out there!
Ostara blessings to all now that we've finally reached the #SpringEquinox - in this part of the world anyway!
The blackthorn is emerging, promising drier weather and an end to wading through mud on our morning walk! At least Arthur and I hope so
Today, at 3.06am, the sun passed directly above the Earth's equator, marking the #SpringEquinox.
Starting this week, our days will be longer than our nights.
