Friends and Daffodils

I have some of the best friends in the whole wide world!

One of these great ladies brought me some daffodils for "Daffodil Day" (which I admit to not knowing about before this) And she brought them to me on a day in which I needed this reminder that it is not all about me!

What a lovely spot of Spring-ness in my kitchen!


I took this picture to post about my pretty flowers and really great friends. And I realized this is truly not a representation of what my house really looks like - pretty and tidy and clean. Really, don't start thinking my whole house looks this good.

My house actually looks more like this picture of the same kitchen, same time - you might, if you look carefully, even see the daffodils in a small oasis of pretty, tidy, and clean. In my own defense, I have not been home at all today - doctor's appointments in Boston with my Mother-in-law.

My fantastic husband stayed home and had all the kiddos outside on this absolutely gorgeous day! Obviously, they all have come in long enough to leave trails and remnants....



(and doesn't everyone have an alb hanging in their kitchen?)


If I am good, I will try to post an update when I finish picking up this mess! Incentive is a good thing! Cuz, really, my kitchen looks good when it is clean!

UPDATED TO ADD THE FOLLOWING:

So, after some much needed help from my younger two daughters, with Dad taking the boys away, I got my kitchen to look like this: (which is the ideal, not total daily reality)




I might have to try this 'post-for-everyone-to-see-the-mess' next week with another room that needs a blitzkrieg!

Thanks, Paula, for the incentive to clean around those gorgeous flowers! You are the best!

A New Start?

A test of sorts.....  I think I'm going to try something old-new.  It has been too many years since my last post. The world's differ...
