    Alice and I went to Garden Club yesterday and our program was presented by a man who works for a wholesale florist and who demonstrated different techniques for creating lovely floral arrangements.  He made five different arrangements and we drew numbers to see which of the 18 members would win them.  I won this one.  It's setting on my dining room table now.  The pink tulips were just buds when he make it, but now they're beginning to actually look like tulips.

    Today we worked on getting my flower beds ready for planting since the weather has turned so nice for a few days. We made two different runs to Home Depot today (and two yesterday) in Alice's pick-up to cart home all the soil enrichers.  It's a lot of work and I'm sure we'll be sore tomorrow, but we did get a lot done today.  We still need to edge the beds, and of course plant stuff as well.

  • Lucky you to win the arrangement.  Hope all your flowers turn out great.  I hope we do better with ours this year.  The drought last year made everything a losing battle.
