1. Sounds of spring: the woodpecker endlessly pecking at the utility pole, the mockingbird singing behind the studio, the green parrots squawking in the branches
2. My trusty seam ripper - bad thread tension problem!
3. The lovely fragrance of some new Curio spices blends
4. Google Maps - I can visit my childhood

1. Breakfast at the pond
2. Spring cleaning -- all the living room and dining room windows are cleaned, and curtains are washed, ironed and rehung!
3. Corned beef and cabbage
4. Wichita Lineman, Glen Campbell
