THE COMING OF SPRING

Het is jullie vast niet ontgaan: de lente is begonnen. Terrassen worden weer massaal bevolkt, parken puilen uit, zonnebrillen op, winterjassen uit! Gisteren kocht ik panda-aardbeien (je weet wel, van die met een Wereld Natuur Fonds-sticker op de verpakking) en vanmiddag at ik me misselijk aan crunchy paaseitjes. Bij dit euforische gevoel (de lentevreugde, niet de misselijkheid) hoort natuurlijk een passend muziekje. Daarom, lieve bloglezers, en aangezien het feit dat ik jullie vast nog wel op één hand kan tellen, bied ik hierbij mijn voorjaarsmixcd'tje aan dat ik twee jaar geleden al bij elkaar heb gescharreld. Ik fröbelde er zelfs ook nog een hoesje bij. Geniet ervan!
