Welcome back to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4 where we try to have fun answering questions about various subjects.
March, they say, comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. It is called the windy month, just as Chicago is called the windy city!
1. Has March come in like a lion or a lamb in your neck of the woods?
It came in like a lamb - 🐑 We were enjoying warm temperatures in the 80s, but then we suddenly shifted back to our usual rainy winter weather. On Sunday, we experienced some really strong winds. It’s still uncertain whether we’ll go out as a Lion. 🦁 or a Lamb.🐑
2. There have been some awful storms of late.. have you suffered through them or have you ever suffered through a very bad storm in your life? (if so we wish you well)
We're experiencing our usual winter rains here in California. We've seen heavy storms that have led to some flooding and mudslides. Although it can be challenging, it's really just a regular part of our winter weather that we've dealt with before.
3. Spring begins March 20th and ends with summer on June 20th this year. Any plans for Spring in general? How about the spring holidays?
Does cleaning, gardening and yard work count?
4. What are your favorite springtime flowers? Trees or shrubs?
From last year -
California poppies are my absolute favorite during this season. Their vibrant orange and golden hues brighten up the landscape like drops of Spring sunshine and their petals unfurl gracefully in the warm spring breeze, creating a stunning contrast against the greenery. Seeing them in full bloom always fills me with joy and a sense of wonder at nature’s beauty.
How about a song with a springtime theme to it that you enjoy?
"Three Little Birds" by Bob Marley is a joyous, uplifting anthem that fills me with a sense of carefree bliss and reminds me to embrace the simple joys of spring.
