Hi everyone,
We love having flowers around and SANDY often brings some home from the grocery store. How’s this for a bargain way to add beauty to the day?

And just outside the window…

I do so love this time of year!

Sat out by the pool until 10:30 last night, first time on the patio this year. A toad serenaded us. I figured it was the one I rescued from the pool trap a few days ago. I love toads that show gratitude.
It was a gratitoad.
The legendary gratitoad? At my house? I’m honored to the point of tears, Jeff. Thank you for this brilliant insight. And to think, I actually touched it! Goose Lake is indeed a magical place!
So jealous! We’re supposed to have some rain and possibly SNOW tomorrow!!!
Snow in May? Uh, no thank you.
I wanted to get some tulips – we have some in the garden but I didn’t want to cut them – but the ones at the store were $16 a bunch.
How terrible, Yvona! Sounds like you encountered a severe case of tuliflation. Where will this end??
David, your posts always make me happy. Thank you!
my visitor yesterday brought a bouquet that now adorns my kitchen table, left me with a fresh resolution: I shall make sure to bring flowers home & put my pitchers & vases to good use.
