J is for ...

I said I would stick to places this month when blogging alphabetically, but that felt too forced and restrictive, so I'm keeping things random.

So J is for ... what? Jam? I like jam (jelly in the US, I think?) My brother-in-law makes great jam. I have a jar of last year's raspberry in the fridge.

J is also for (winter) jasmine. Even on a dull day like today it brings a little bit of sunshine to the garden.





There are other early signs of spring. The hellebore is flowering



and the crocus.



A word I associate with spring is joy. That begins with a J too.

Is blogging alphabetically the NaBloPoMo theme? Or are you just doing it for fun?

To keep things in perspective:
