The other night I came home to buckets and buckets of fresh cut lilac. I love Spring! LoAnn had gone out “picking”, if you catch my drift. I have been cultivating my own lilac bushes, but, alas they have not given one bloom yet. Their still babies (grinning-me).
LoAnn did some pounding with a hammer on their stems and plunged them into hot water which is supposed to preserve their blooms. Later, I trimmed them all down filling every vase I have in the house, from the tall, elegant crystal vases to every last bud vase. Lilacs on the kitchen window sill, the kitchen nook table, lovely purple blooms on my desk, in the bathrooms, next to my bed, on the radiator next to my orchids (competing for attention), on the slender table in the dining room, on the small table in the living room with the lamp above casting perfect light on the lavender shades of aromatic petals. And, oh the smell. A house full of lilac is what I had!

Imagine it!
The very thought of a house filled with the sweet scent of lilacs makes me salivate. Not that I’d want to eat them… just that it’s the most wonderful scent ever! Enjoy!
