If you saw my post title and thought "pasta," sorry to disappoint. "Primavera" in the context of food means "spring vegetables." But generally, in many Romance languages, it simply means "spring."

And what better way to suggest spring than with a photo of cherry blossoms? These aren't just any blossoms, however. They are cherry blossoms in the Kew Gardens in London. What makes them different from cherry blossoms in other parts of the world? These speak with a slight British accent.

And for those who crave context (and human presence), here's the same place but a different photographic interpretation.
