That same day, Friday, I found the first crocus to sprout in our yard, in the bed along the dark side of the house. After taking this photo I went to the back yard where we get scores every spring and I couldn't yet find one. It's still March, though.
March Madness.
On a side note, Cuba City won the division 4 girls state high school championship this afternoon, coached by my cousin. Congratulations, Cubans!
Before the games today I did a lot of housework and made some of my flatbread, which has become a staple in this household. Now, flatbread and pita are two very similar recipes but different cooking methods. My flatbread is dry fried in a hot pan on the stove, and pita is baked at high temperature on a baking stone. The last few of my flatbreads today did wonderful pita impressions, though, so I grabbed my camera.
After the break are photos of that last flatbread-posing-as-pita, and that batch.

Those flat breads look very tasty, good with grilled chicken and a green salad...making me hungry now.
Nice to see the crocuses emerge and we too had a mild winter but not quite over. We have one daffodil, none of the others have yet sprung up.
Thank you, we use it for lots of things but most of these will be used for homemade gyros sometime this week. And I noticed a daffodil coming up here yesterday.
The weather has gone mad the past 3 days - while still close to zero at ngihts, it has been 20 C by day and gloriously sunny! At last! But, everywhere is soooo dry and the reservoirs are all very low for the time of year.

We've been all over the board, here. Generally staying pretty chilly for the foreseeable future and some nights below freezing yet to come. Also a very dry winter here, so we'll see if spring showers can help.
