Little hardy flowers
Like to children poor,
Playing in their sturdy health,
By their mother's door:
Purple with the north wind,
Yet alert and bold;
Fearing not and caring not,
Though they be a-cold.
--from Buttercups and Daisies by Mary Howitt
A few days ago, Margaret spent a happy hour in the yard filling a tea tin with blossoms. Here are the lovely results.
And here is Marie's doll's bowl of flowers, which was much appreciated by Raggedy Ann.
This pleasant activity reminded me of Autumn Stew (in a coffee can), 2006, and our traditional Spring Soup.
Must be spring!

I can't get over your flowers! We have daffodils and crocuses and that's it, so far.

so so pretty! I love all the flowers. The O'Flaherty's will forgive you for using the Barry's Tea box. Len worked for Lyons Tea for 35 years :-)

I have tried clinique's line and up until that point, it was the best thing that worekd for my acne. It made my acne decrease but it never got rid of all of it. I used the Tea Tree Oil line for two months. It made my skin tone a lot better, it made my redness decrease, it made my skin super soft. But it didn't clear my acne. And it made me sad haha I really wanted this stuff to work. If you hve skin like mine, I suggest going to see a Dermatologist. Thats what I did after this. She told me
