1. Do you suffer from Spring Fever?

No.


2. Have you ever been twitterpated (infatuated or obsessed. In a state of nervous excitement)?

No? Not in any serious sense. I mean, everyone gets obsessive and nervously excited at points but I don't think I have had it in prolonged a state enough to call it a thing. This question makes me think of obsessive tumblr fandoms and it is a hard no on that front for sure.


3. What does Spring taste like to you?

My family does not really change its eating habits over the course of a year. We eat stew all year round. You will get served salad and a baked potato in December. I am privileged to live somewhere that has all fruits and veg ect all year round. The quality of some differs in periods but that tends to be Summer.

4. When was the last time you visited an ice cream truck?

I have no idea. I could not even pinpoint a year or a country on it.


5. Do you know what song your ice cream truck plays?

'if you go down to the woods today you're in for a big surprise~

and Nico is terrified of it. He hates all ice cream vans (we call em vans) sounds and whines and shakes and hides behind desks and under tables when they come. I think the pitch is too high for him. If I am not working on a Friday afternoon I try be at home so I can comfort him.

Being in the central valley of California, we have a year round growing cycle and access to just about anything we could want, but I still remember those first few warm spring days on the farm and being so excited to see the first dandelions. It was big news to me later in life to discover not everyone had such warm feelings for them.
