Poem from Bettina.
March is upon us, one of the more challenging months. Here’s a short poem from the wonderfully entertaining A Thousand Ways to Please a Husband that expresses all.
Weary are we of winter-time fare;
Hasten, O Springtime, elusive and arch!
Bring us your danties, our cupboards are bare!
Pitty us! Starved by tyrannical March!
Set in WWI, Bettina offers insights into everyday life of a newlywed.

Love the poem! That’s just about how I feel right now – please, no more rutabagas!

The spring veggies are in, but the weather has been relentless…. Yet another weekend indoors with no hope of letup from the bluster and rain.

Keep snug! We just got another six inches of snow! But it is March, and sooner or later we’ll have spring!
