The Winds are Blowing - March Days are Here By Scarlett Cook
I
don’t know about you but I don’t have to wait for March for winds to blow! This year has been extremely windy and March has just arrived. I sometimes wonder if I couldn’t put up a windmill and use it to generate power. I guess it is because we have so many hills and valleys that we always have a breeze. Batten down the doors and windows and cook this meal which should have something that appeals to everyone. And don’t forget to wear your green on the 17th so you don’t get pinched.
