While running through our quickie mart grabbing some thing I forgot to add to the shopping list, (how does one forget to add supplies?) I spotted these flowers on the way to the check stand.
At first I walked past them, after all they were not very pretty. But, there was a touch of color. We are living in a color depraved valley right now. So before I could over think the binge I grabbed a bouquet and put them in my basket.
Something about these flowers made me feel happy. A little scarce looking, I call them my "Charlie Brown bouquet". Still they made me feel happy and I wondered why do I wait for special occasion's to buy flowers??
I will now add flowers to my shopping list. Maybe not flowers from the quickie mart. Even though I think I gave them a good home, I will try to remember every day is a special occasion. Let us rejoice in it.
The flowers are so pretty Nonie. They even give me ideas

Flowers bring life to a home in the dark days of February. Enjoy their beauty and thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! I love all the colors. We used to buy flowers "just because" but haven't done it in a while. You've inspired me to get some. I might even do it regularly. I love fresh flowers. thanks for sharing yours with us!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how cheerful flowers can make us feel. I wish we had things that bloomed all during the year.
ReplyDeleteThanks Nonie for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment. I really appreciate it!
ReplyDeleteWe have been enjoying camellias cut from my Granny's bush. The extra bit of color does add cheer to these cold winter days.
ReplyDeleteI believe that even the simplest of flowers can go far to brighten our days. Lovely!
