HAPPY SPRING!!!

Enjoy spring with some Key Lime Pie. Open up your windows and hang a wind chime in the window (until it gets too chilly). Find a short glass and pick a spring blossom or even a weed to put in the "flower vase" to enjoy. Visit Longwood Gardens. Check out THEORGANICGARDNERS.BLOGSPOT.COM site. All these are great ways to get outside when spring traps you indoors.
Spring trivia: Did you know that tulips are actually natives of Turkey and Central Asia? Ranunculus means "little frog" in Latin? And Peony in Chinese is sho yu which translates into "most beautiful" despite the fact the more ants that climb the stocks the better the flowers? Modern flower genetics have formulated a yellow lilac bush?
On a sadder note: Last Wednesday was the 5th year anniversary of the war in Iraq. The Chinese again are challenging human rights in Tibet. Gas prices-need I say more?
