We are having a snowy day here in the Big Smoke and I think that points east are experiencing similar un-springlike weather events. Don't despair -- the second annual Washington Post Peeps Diorama Contest drew more than 800 sugar-filled entries and you can see 37 of the vernal creations here. If that does not put a spring in your step, I am not sure what will.

In Toronto we are consoling ourselves with the fact that we are a mere 17 centimetres from beating our all-time snowfall record. Bring it on!
