If you are living in Northern Maine (as I am), you are probably thinking – where is spring? Sure, some of the snow has melted and the rivers are starting to open up. But we've also had a number of snow storms this month, as well as numerous days of frigid temperatures and biting winds. And so today I will be discussing how to get into the springtime spirit even when mother nature doesn't cooperate.
First, get a tan. Though I normally advise against getting fake tans because they tend to dye you a rather unnatural shade of Oompa Loompa orange (as well as result in other possible health implications), after a winter such as this, I think we all could benefit from getting a little color. And if you can't afford to get one of those newfangled spray-on tans, then do it the old fashioned way – baste yourself in a little butter and lay on the floor in front of the picture window for a while.
Second, eat some springtime foods. Sure the gardens might still be frosty, but that is no reason not to stop by the market and pick up some fresh asparagus. Besides, eating all those healthy springtime vegetables might actually help when it comes time to squeeze into that summertime swim suit.
And third, where there's a will, there's a way. So, don't let a little snow, freezing rain, or irate golf pro get in the way of your favorite springtime activities. I'd be willing to bet that with a little ingenuity, a pair of snowshoes, and a set of chains fitted securely around the tires of that golf cart, you'll be out on the course playing a round in no time.
