I Just Couldn't Help Myself

What's a woman to do when you're standing in line at the grocery

store and these daffodils on clearance are staring you down?

At first, I just leaned over to smell them, and then stepped back

in line.  But ~ they kept calling my name.

Besides ~ there's a nasty snow and ice storm coming in tonight

and I needed a little "fix" to get me through the next

onslaught of nasty weather.

So ~ with my daffodils in one hand and a bag of Hershey's kisses

in the other, I went through the self check-out line.

Now I know you're laughing at me, but over the weekend while

I was out, my daughter's dog somehow got up on my desk

and ate half my stash of kisses.  

  

  While everyone else is stocking up before the storm on the necessities of milk 

and bread, I'm buying flowers and candy.  A person has to do what they 

need to survive.  And oh yeah ~ the

dog is just fine ~ he has a stomach of steel.

But doesn't my desk look so much cheerier?

Isn't this yellow and white striped pitcher sweet?  I just

love it's cheerfulness.  It's not vintage and it's not handmade, so

I can't sell it in my Etsy shop, but it will go up for sale at

my next open house in May.  I found both the pitcher and bowl at
 Goodwill  on one of my treasure hunts and I love how they brighten

 my desk with sunshine.

I don't think I've ever had such a good time posting  pictures.

It's amazing how a splash of yellow can lift your spirits.

I hope they've lifted your spirits too!
