The people closest to me know how much i love flowers. So much in fact that it is one of my biggest thrills to anticipate the coming of spring along with two of my favourite flowers. I know where all of the forsythia and lilac bushes are around town and i know which ones are easiest to sneak to with my shears. This year before we even left on our trip i knew i would miss the start of forsythia season. It wasn't a good enough reason to cancel the trip (um, sorry honey but we can't go until the growing season is over because i don't want to miss any flowers this year).
The good news is that i haven't missed the lilacs. Because of the cooler weather this year, they seem to be a bit late. So, if you see a crazy woman climbing a bush with a knife in hand pull over and i'll cut you some too. And, if you feel like getting married in the next few weeks, we should talk about your flowers.
