Must be Spring!

Saturday I was on my way to school when i turned on to Broadway and saw a street fair...the first street fair of the season!! This means spring has arrived and the season of street fairs is amongst us again. This means weekends of bbq'd corn, crepes, cheap cheap thai food, 3 for $10 pashmina's and of course my fav. the ability to buy socks and underwear for uber cheap out of bins (if only the gross factor didn't overwhelm me i'd be go shopping for undies!).

Although the street fair is an official city thing that has happened for spring, a few weeks ago i started noticing all the flowers coming up, the trees in bloom and most if not all of the apartment buildings shed the old wintering flower boxes for more updated and pretty spring flowers. My building has yet to remove the pine boughs and plant flowers, i'm hoping this week we get our flowers, but next door they are sporting some goooooorgeous hydrangeas.

I will take pictures soon...i wish i could capture the smell (of the flowers and trees, not the city)...the trees are changing the whole smell of the parks, loove it!
