Spring grace notes

On my To Do List:

• Make homemade biscotti to thank Sandy for lending me Season Five of The Wire
  
• Brush Duke, the tabby, to help him lose his old winter coat
• Buy freesia (they last longer than tulips)
• Throw out old makeup, replace- and that includes everything powdered that's worn to the glass below it and funny tasting lipstick... out!
  
• Splurge on one of Hermes' new Egyptian cotton scarves. Devours a major chunk of my seasonal budget, but I'm learning: buy one great thing for both the pleasure and the simplicity
