I counted my floral ties this morning.

I pulled out the four gallon-sized ziplock bags I keep them in during the colder months (grouped by color, of course) and made a quick tally.

There are 29 of them.

Given that surplus and the strangely mild winter we’ve had in Providence, I feel justified in breaking one out a little early. Right? I mean… I’m not going to jinx myself with a late-winter blizzard by wearing out-of-season neckwear, am I?
