Oh, wow! What a wonderful custom! I love the personification of March as a grumpy old woman, subject to mood changes.

No, I bought it for her last year, or maybe even some previous year, and she preserved it because she liked it. Now I wonder how it was made. If the little yarn dolls were hand-made, it must have been extremely fiddly work.

My own hand-made dolls have never been so fine. :)

A wonderful date to see on the calendar! I took a walk and actually saw crocuses in bud today.

I saw daffodils in bud this evening (see my next entry). Wow, that was fast!
