Folks, in a desperate attempt to make use of that quickly-fading tan from Sri Lanka, I'm sporting bare legs today, and that can only mean one thing: spring is fuh-inally here.
This also means:
Cherry blossoms. Everywhere. Specifically, on Instagram and Twitter, but the pink petals dusted my commute into work today like wedding confetti. It was wonderful.
Wild cherry ice cream from my favorite London ice cream establishment, Udderlicious, on Islington's Upper Street - which I ate outside the store while John went to look at headphones in Bose. I tried to look as content as possible and make "MmmmMMmmMM!" sounds of approval so that more people would go in and follow suit (I love supporting that family-run business!). They did.
Eating lunch outside on a work day. A small luxury in itself and a good excuse to get out of the office.
Enjoying pizza Fridays at Sweet Thursday - outdoors. I tell ya: a carafe of house red and a wood-fired oven baked pizza is the best way to celebrate #TGIF. The best.
How's your spring shaping up? Have you got your sunnies on, or is your thermostat still turned up? Let me know.
