Monday Mini 8

So sorry for no puzzle last Friday. It was a long week. I'll have one this week. It's that time of year when we're all hunkered down for what looks to be an underwhelming snowstorm, and that has me thinking about planning my garden for the spring.


Song of the puzzle is a classic:

Enjoy!
