Just took a pan of oatmeal-butterscotch bars out of the over. They're for the pub quiz this afternoon. The last little bit of ice/snow has disappeared from the back yard. It's still too early to do much work, but I'm going to try to clean up the black raspberry patch tomorrow. I cut back the spent canes last fall, but the new growth needs to be staked up, and there are some weeds to be pulled.
