Another one of those nothing stories where Pooh awakes to the first day of spring and walks around the Hundred Acre Wood singing and meeting his friends one by one before inviting them all to a big picnic party. Ho-hum.

(My Pooh Project: I love Winnie the Pooh, and so does my wife. Having a daughter gave us a chance to indoctrinate her into the cult by buying and reading her every Pooh book we came across. How many is that? I’m going to count them this year by reading and reviewing one every day and seeing which month I finally run out. Track my progress here:
