I realize this is a little off base, but I thought I would do something a little different where as it is Easter.
Above I posted one of my photos of the Easter lily. Rather pretty lily ,yet hard to grow out doors in my climate, therefore; I grow it indoors.
I happen to love this time of year. I think spring is my favorite season for the mere fact it is associated with rebirth, everything comes to life once again.
I will admit my birthday is also in April so it certainly adds to why I like the spring, however; living in a climate such as mine it seems to me everyone likes the spring.
We have fairly severe winters here and just when it seems as though you cannot take one more day it, the spring comes, brightening everything. The dreariness in which the winter had brought at last disappears. You cannot get much better then that....
Tomorrow I shall do a write up of the zones, but today I wanted to do a little something for easter.
How Easter came to be
For the Christian world, Easter is the commemoration of Jesus's resurrection, observed on the first Sunday after the full moon following the spring equinox, which can fall anywhere between March 22 and April 25. But for those who love food, it is also a holiday associated with chocolate, painted eggs and big family meals. Early on Easter morning children get up and search the house for eggs and other treats left by the Easter bunny. the eggs and the rabbit itself are ancient symbols of fertility and springtime rebirth.
That is about it for today, I hope everyone has a wonderful easter. Cheers.
