Fragrant Lilies

 As I sit writing this on my computer keyboard at the kitchen table, the air is filled with the most incredibly beautiful fragrance. 

It's coming from a bouquet of lilies I bought for myself in the supermarket.

There are about eight of them in the bouquet which cost $8.99.

Yes, it was a big splurge but one that was worth every dime.

Now, I call these stargazer  lilies but if they are not, let me know, will you?

They are quite exotic to look at, especially in the middle. 

There are all kinds of thing-a-ma-jigs sticking up and tiny, deep magenta colored spikes are sprinkled over the insides of the long, gorgeous petals.

 
These lilies are really quite unique and quite exotic and even more so in the silver vase tied with  the grey, silk knotted rope "ribbon."

It's important to treat ourselves kindly.

The lilies lifted my spirit and now, in addition, they are making everything smell lovely.  

What a deal.



WHEN YOU BUY FLOWERS, DO YOU PUT THEM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE KITCHEN TABLE?

 IF NOT, WHERE DO YOU LIKE TO KEEP THEM IN YOUR HOUSE?
