A little Spring

I've always been a girl that enjoyed winter, especially snow.

So, I don't know what happened this time around, but I was done with all of it right after Christmas.

Maybe because it was unusually cold?

Maybe because it seemed so dreary?

Or maybe it just didn't fit my mood.

Who knows.

But whatever the reason, I've been dying for a little Spring, so as soon as it warmed up a bit, I cleaned off my front porch, and toddled off to the store, so I could fill my pots with flowers.

And yes, I know that we'll have another round of winter weather before Mother's Day, because that's just the way it is up here in the mountains.

But for now.... 

right this minute... 

even if the trees are still bare....

it's Spring on my front porch.

Friendly flowers

Daisies are my favorite flower.

Did you know that?

I mentioned it before on my old blog several times, but oddly enough I don't think I've written about it here on this one, except for maybe in passing.

In the Movie 'You've Got Mail', which I've quoted before, because it's one of my favorites. Meg Ryan's character, Kathleen Kelly asked... 

"Don't you think daises are the friendliest flower?"

Yes, I do, Kathleen.

I bet I know what you're thinking.

"Why is she blathering on about daises and posting pictures of tulips?" 

Well, if daises are nowhere to be found at the moment, but you still want to add a little Spring in your home, I think tulips are the next best thing.

So I brought some home with me :)

And they're pretty friendly looking too.

Don't you think?
