Well, the B*L*O*O*M*S are ripe for the picking…
and ” pick them“…I did…
But, just ONE bouquet would NEVER do...
I’m afraid, they were ALL OVER the house…

{I was relaxing amongst the fragrant blooms,}
{last evening, when all of a sudden,}
{this thought, occurred to me…}
“I often ponder on what Heaven will look like,
but..I now believe,
I know what it will “S*M*E*L*L” like…
hmmmm….lilacs

aroma and old fashioned nature.

Hey doll! That was a good cuppa….I just went window shopping in your world and I love how you made your quotes!!! I HOLD THE SAME RULES! I teach fourth grade you know, and I come to school in high heels, earrings, pearls, funky brooches and flairy skirts. One year, a kid said to me, “Madame, I will never forget your cloths!”
I wish I could go INTO your shop and feel everything….those plush animals are so darling!!!
Back tomorrow for another cuppa, Anita
I LOVE them too, ours don’t bloom here til the end of May, I don’t have any bushes but I know where some abandoned ones are and I pay them a little visit! In Heaven, I just know they are there and roses and that they last even longer!
Hello Rosie~ what a pleasure it was to see you stroll in for a visit. i love meeting new friends.
I was just telling mu hubs how I’d love to bring in a few bouquets. Our sunshine is so fleeting in the Pacific Northwest, you’ve got to pick your blooms before the sudden rainfall hits them.
I adore your name…Roses and Rutabagas. We love roses! We’ve got over 150 bushes in our yard. I posted a tutorial on how to sugar roses (It’s in my archives).
I look forward to comng by your charming blog again. It’ll be nice getting to know you.
Sweet wishes,
Sara
Lilacs are my favorite spring flower. At least until the lily-of-the-valley starts blooming, then the peonies…
But I do fill my house with lilacs. I love waking up in the morning to my entire house smelling so wonderful! And yes, I do think heaven must smell exactly like that!
