Pretty in Pink
Tulips! One of my favourite spring flowers. These are from the store as no tulips are in bloom here. I bought these for our Valentine table last week and they've brightened my spirits with their cheery pink and yellow and green sweetness.
I've had a productive week so far - finished two novels, one in French and one in English, submitted a French essay and also a translation exercise. I was feeling so pleased with myself and envisioned getting lots more done today. However...an 11:00 am appointment that took until 1:30 broke up my day. I did a little studying this morning but this afternoon has been MOST unproductive. And the sun shining through my living room window makes me just want to curl up like a kitten there and soak it all in.
Maybe I'll take some reading material down to the spot of warmth and accomplish two things at once!

Gorgeous..... I had a tulip posy on my own blog banner until recently. They are such spritely flowers, a real harbinger of spring!
