Gratitude Friday


A couple weeks ago I noticed in the grocery flyers and in the stores that all the spring flowers were on sale - tulips and daffodils.  I do like snow storms, but I also start hankering for spring pretty early.  Although I didn't add a bright yellow daffodil to my grocery cart the other week, I do have a lovely spring flower in our home!


Last week we had the post-Christmas-program meeting with Martin & Alice and Alice brought me this plant.  A lovely surprise, especially as this week it has opened up into a beautiful pink flower and it smells so good!

The blizzard of this week did seem to be a little over-hyped, as I expected, although we did get quite a bit of snow.  My estimate is about 8 inches, but it is really hard to tell as there was a fair bit of drifting too.  Now that we've had a big winter storm, welcome spring!
