All the purple flowers then?

Hmm, irises of all colors, and I like white and pink lilacs, too. In that case of irises, it’s the shape and size, and in the case of lilacs, it’s the scent. I remember that scent of lilacs from my deepest childhood. I planted them under my windows, and when the wind is just right, I am straight back to my childhood. 🙂 Roses are beautiful, too, of course.

Great Brenda. I love living part of my life, permanently in kid mode. I have a business side to me and a fun/kid side to me. I like writing business books and kids picture books, and that is reflected in my home environment.
LikeLike
Yes, I have a more pragmatic business side, too. I’m a lawyer, after all. But my inner child is happy these days, picnicking in the sun and turning cartwheels with the fairies. I love that adults like what I write, too. 😀 Thanks for commenting and brightening my day!! Cheers, Brenda

Oh , they are beautiful Brenda! My grandmother’s garden is full of these flowers! so this post made me think of my granny! 🙂 She is 83, but still a charming lady 🙂 Just like her flowers 🙂 I talked to my mother yesterday and she had helped my granny tend to her garden. How lovely that they had been gardening together. The garden must be blooming now, since it is May 🙂

I remember my grandmother gave me a bottle of lily of the valley scent when I was a little girl. And dusting powder. Do you remember dusting powder?
LikeLike
Oh yes. Yes I do remember dusting powder. OH boy. Does that bring memories. And I also remember the Lily of Valley scent as well. They don’t make it anymore, though. I’ve looked. What a shame.

Sigh for a youth of soft grandma laps, scented with lilac, fat leather purses full of candy bars and rhinestone cat-eye glasses. I miss her, imperfect as she was, she was mine.
