Spring! To The Occasion

Happy first day of Spring!

Even though the sun is shining on this gorgeous March afternoon, it’s still a little chilly here in Cleveland. So to help get myself in the springtime spirit, I hopped over to Home Depot on my lunch break. Just look at all that greenery!

Since I was short on time, I only wandered around the garden section and managed to find a little “Welcome, Spring” gift for the hubby (for less than $8!) that I’ll share later. (Robb hasn’t seen it yet, so I can’t spill the beans!) The funny thing is, I never used to like houseplants. Call me crazy, but bringing dirt inside the house–on purpose!–always seemed insane to my clean-freak brain. (I think the fact that I managed to kill every plant I owned might have played into my aversion.) But ever since we moved into the new apartment, Robb–and his small, potted army–have converted me, and now I welcome the leafy little things with open arms. I even brought a spider plant to live on the ledge behind my desk at work:
