From the moment I got out of my car and spotted some potted daffodils in a shoppers cart I knew I was going to be bringing some flowers home with me!
Sure enough once I was inside the grocery store I spotted a sea of flowers and my radar was locked! A wonderful smell from all the different varieties of flowers floated right into my nose-
How could I say no!
I selected this bouquet because it was loaded with a nice variety of colors and the flowers were still tightly closed.
They're opening nice and slow-
I think I'll be enjoying these all week long!

Vibrant colors
Makes me happy!
The sun was in and out all day today competing with clouds ... That's okay though because I have my own interior sunshine with these babies!
I'm still working on my glass is half full approach! I've decided to embrace this last month of winter with optimism and to enjoy it like a rose that is fading away!

ReplyDeleteThe tulips are just what I need to give me jope Spring is on the way, I think!
I can see why you couldn't say no.
I bought a bunch last week to Liz, its just time for this winter to move on out. I love all the colors in your bouquet. I think after church today I'll head back to Costco and pick up another bunch...you've brought me hope and inspiration with this thread.
ReplyDeleteThe tulips are beautiful, Liz. Nice choice! There is nothing like the first bunch of tulips to signal that spring is on the way.

Wau - where some beautiful tulips you show. Wish you a good Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteYay for you, Liz! I love your "glass half full" attitude and the rose simile.
ReplyDeleteAs for saying no to the purchase, I'm not likely to chastise you, given I came home last evening with a bunch of peachy-orange tulips! Your multi-coloured ones looks fabulous and I'm with you on getting them before they've opened. Each stage has its own beauty.
Here's to tulips at "Sunlit Sunday"; thank you for sharing them.

ReplyDeleteGood for you! I'm glad you didn't say no! I think its especially hard to say no to tulips since there is such a short window for them. They are beautiful! Happy Sunday :)
ReplyDeleteYou were able to purchase a nice array of colours - so springlike!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your flowers with us.

ReplyDeleteDimi..
You n-e-e-d-e-d those flowers - how could you have said, "No"? They are beautiful. I tried to find some pink ones the other day for a table I will be posting soon and could not find any in town! I guess pink was the most popular color this year. All the colors are gorgeous, though, and you scored some wonderful ones!
ReplyDeleteLook at the pretty colors in your bouquet! I love them and they brighten up your home! Enjoy your week...and your happy attitude of optimism! We all need more of that!
ReplyDeletehe he he! I know just how you feel! :) I have a hard time walking by the florist department.
ReplyDeleteThese are so pretty too. I'm so glad that you joined in for Fresh-Cut Friday! :)
