Signs of Spring

Today we had the inaugural run of Mr. Apple's new, insanely bad-ass, food processor that I got him as a gift. He made pizza for lunch and a bread for dinner.

While the bread was rising, we went on a lovely walk around the neighborhood, up to my secret cafe, and back past the sunset overlook. I hadn't noticed before today, but suddenly I could see all the little shoots of flowers starting to come up, and the first crocuses, and the trees beginning to bloom. It was such a hopeful sight! And, I discovered what looks like plenty of flowers in our own new yard.

We finished the walk at the Green Market for Beecher's cheese and cider to make a fondue for two for dinner. Delicious!
