Not really. There were, however, lawns with no snow and I spotted no less than 9 crocuses (crocae?) making their way into the spring sun in the village of Plymouth, Massachusettes. This is where Seth's grandparents Tillie and Leno Atti make their home. This was Tua's first visit to Plymouth, though she has met her great-grandparents several times before on their visits to Vermont. Tillie Atti is known in wide circles as a tremendous cook and the most generous of hosts. So is was no surprise today to dine in pleasure and depart in girth. Proportionally, Tua out-ate everyone, seconds on the tortellini, thirds on the vermicelli and a moderate serving of ice-cream. Below are some of the better takes of the day.
