lilacs into the house!! They are so pretty and smell so beautiful! Of course I sneezed the whole time I was arranging them in the vase but I seemed to have stopped for now. Of course I am upstairs in the office and they are downstairs and way at the other end of the house in the living room and that may be why I am not sneezing! I hope I have not developed an allergy to them as I simply live for springtime and the lilacs. Love 'em!!

Ciao for now! KaCee

Poof!!! I'm gone!!

You are so lucky. The cut lilacs we get in the City have no smell. They must be doing something wrong- maybe cutting them too early . Enjoy yours, even if you have to take an antihistamine.

What a pleasant scent they have, KaCee. We don't have them yet here. Can see their buds, though.

And I snipped a half dozen daffodils, Kacee. Spring has been a long time in coming, but all of a sudden the trees are beginning to bud and flower and snow is just a fading memory. It's about time!

Lilacs are so beautiful! I hope you enjoyed your day.
