Happy Spring!

To me, springtime and tulips are one and the same. I have fond memories of visiting endless fields of color, buying up bunches of them wrapped in paper from roadside stands, and frantically driving around w/ J to find enough white and yellow tulips {a week or two before their prime} for our wedding.

Someday I'd love to visit Holland and bicycle from tulip field to tulip field. Ideally while wearing a lovely hat. ;)

Happy First Day of Spring, everyone!

    I love how you don't let the holidays pass by without a nod! That's what I always imagine myself doing, just like I imagine myself growing herbs in pots in the kitchen, promptly sending thoughtfully written thank you notes, and actually mailing in my voters ballot...

    I want to come. To Holland.

    I adore tulips and have them in the house until the stores no longer carry them.

    I've visited those tulip fields in Holland many times, it's a site to see that is for sure.

    How is J liking his new job?
