It’s happened to you before.

You’re in a store, and you hear it.

At first, you’re not sure, but within seconds there’s no mistaking it.

That little pot of pink tulips is calling your name.

There’s plenty to do (back to work next week).

But maybe just one little indoor play date with your camera wouldn’t hurt.

Next thing you know, those little pink tulips have jumped into your cart.

Things happen.

    Haha I agree about plants calling your name. I bought a bunch of peonies the other day. Sadly, they don’t seem to be blooming though so no play time for me :(

  • when we had a wonderful green grocer just up the street there were many times when bunches of tulips followed me home .. they also caused our late great Gus cat to have the most obnoxious farts after ingesting the stamens! i havent had any fresh flowers since we have Harry .. i wonder if he is a flower eater or ignorer …
