Sakura Season

Every year now when spring comes I miss the sakura(cherry blossoms) in Japan. I see them here too but it's not even close to the same. They are amazing there. It makes me want to jump on a plane and go back...I miss it. I miss speaking Japanese and eating the food and the people and the culture etc. Someday again perhaps...

Well, it isn't Sakura season in Farmington. There was 4" of snow on our lawn this morning (April Fool's...I wish!) and some of it is still there tonight. Maybe in May?? There were a very few blossoms on the forsythia on Saturday. I do remember the cherry blossoms in Takayama. I'm sure I'll never see anything like them again. Overwhelming!

I hear ya, Cricket. I miss Japan everyday. I miss the hanami parties - and therefore, the crepes filled with strawberries, whipped cream, and corn flakes. Sigh.
