Vernal Equinox, Jersey Style

The boy and I moved to New Jersey in 2002, when JT was just two years old. For better or for worse, he is a Jersey kid. He knows all about traffic, he can't say the word button (one should pronounce the t....), he thinks that a Dunkin Donuts is on every corner in America, and he loves a little treat from Rita's Italian Ice. On the first day of spring, you can get a free Italian ice and that's what JT and I did today. Sure, it was just 45 degrees and we waited in the outside line wearing coats and mittens. But those ices (mango for me and root beer for JT) tasted just like summer is right around the corner.
