My New Boots!

I bought these on my last day of Christmas vacation in Finland... it was love at first sight and they were on sale...

Now I'm waiting for some drier weather to be able top wear them without worrying about the wet...
They are from here: http://tarsala.fi/

Spring is in the air!


                                                        This is mint growing...


                                These are crocuses that are coming out on the terrace...


                                                                And a little hyacinth.


And these are 'laskiaispulla' which I made on Tuesday (they disappeared rather quickly! )
