From most perspectives it does seem that winter still has quite a bit of tooth left in it. The perspective I’m choosing to use these days, however, comes with a pair of rose-colored glasses. Not only do these glasses brighten up everything but even better they accentuate the small green things I see popping out of the soil. From this perspective, strawberries, peaches and tomatoes seem possible, even close at hand.
