Since I have to set 3 clocks, and write myself at least 3 additional notes, I thought I would remind all of our friends that this is the weekend that we “spring ahead” one hour.  So, don’t forget to turn the clock forward before you got to bed on Saturday night, or you will be late for church or brunch on Sunday morning.

“Springing  Ahead” in the month just a little, I should also remind everyone that St. Patrick’s Day is on Sunday, March 17th, and one of the largest parades in the country happens right here in Pittsburgh on Saturday — March 16th.  We all can be Irish for one day.  Don’t forget your green carnation for your lapel.  That makes you truly Irish!

Of Course, Spring is really arriving in style as usual on March 21st.

Just a few weeks  from now  is Palm  Sunday, March 24 and of course,  Easter Sunday on March 31.  Wow….the month is truly wizzing by!!

Easter is a few weeks earlier than we have had it in the past few years.  We are all  hoping that the snow has all but become a long faded memory, and that  spring is truly here when the Easter Bunny hops our way.

Don’t forget, cut tulips and Daffodils are arriving and in stock daily now.  Take a small bunch of Spring home to brighten your table today.

So, in keeping with St, Patrick, and a wonderful blessing from a long-forgotten poet:  “May the roads rise up to meet you;  May the Winds be always at your back; May the sun shine warm upon your face.  And Until we meet again…………
