Show and Tell Friday


Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! I'm so excited...my lilacs have started blooming!  I can tell already though that this is not going to be a good year for them.  I don't have nearly as many buds as I've had in previous years!  I think it's because it didn't get very cold this winter and we didn't have much rain.  


This is all that's blooming now but hopefully soon there will be many more!


I also noticed that my Eden rose has buds on it already!  That makes me really happy! I can hardly wait to have big bouquets of those!  

I just had my 6th day at my new job and it's still going very well!  I'm so happy to be working again!  My daughter just got a new job too! She goes to college in the morning and works at a bakery in the afternoon! I told her that I forbid her to bring home any baked goods!  Haha! We don't need those extra calories!

  23. I love the buttery-warm and cozy light diffused through the lilacs; really nice layout. It's one of my favorite color combinations, a muted but pleasing variation of a more vibrant glitter-gold and purple.

    Very happy you and your daughter have new jobs; uplifting for you and a great start still early in the year. In actuality, you got re-employed very quickly, which is nice to know can still happen to good people in this troubled economy/job market.

    Congratz to you both...a sigh and relief with a capital "R."

  32. Cindy I am so glad your job is working out. I am so glad Lauren got her a job doing something she likes. If she could only bring the goodies home and leave the calories at the bakery.
    That would be great! Your Lilacs
    are beautiful again this year. I hope you and Lauren have a wonderful weekend.
