"She Who Must Not Be Named" planted snowdrops beside the garage a few years ago. They're always the first to bloom. This year they're a bit early [last year they weren't up until late January] -- not very impressive, but they are the first hint of the glories to come.
To clarify: the title is excerpted from Act 1 of Shakespeare's Love's Labour's Lost. The full quote goes: "Light, seeking light, doth light of light beguile; So ere you find where light in darkness lies, Your light grows dark by losing of your eyes." It's a warning against spending too much of your life in scholarly pursuits.
