Supermarket Spring



Here in northern Colorado we are still wondering when Spring will come to full life. In walks around the yard I see signs. The daffodils and tulips are slowly pushing their way through the soil, seeking sunlight. I woke to cloud covered skies which finally produced a skiff of snow that melted quickly. The day remained cold. I have been cold for days.

So while we wait for Spring to complete her enterance, it is hard to resist the beautiful spring flowrers in the supermarket.


I really need to stay out of the thrift stores because I always find cool stuff, like this little pitcher. Smaller than the first one I bought, this one is perfect for a handful of daffodils. I can't wait to fill it with lilacs in May.

BY the way, how do you like the quality of this unedited iPhone photo? Not too shabby. 

I hope that you are having a good week. 

Thanks for stopping by.

    I am always on the look out for small vases/jugs for flowers - yours is just right, as you say, for a few daffs. We have rain this morning - it is looking pretty grim out there, but at least its not snow.

    What a great find. I think the next time I go to the store I am going to buy me some flowers to put a little bit of spring in the house.
