I just came over from the very nice comment you left on my blog (thank you!), and I'm so glad I did! I love it here. There's a deep well of peace and thought but also a celebration of flowers and gooey chocolate brownies. Yum! Thank you, and I'm adding you to my link love list right now! ___________________________________ <em>Oh, thank you! It's lovely of you to leave a comment! Glad you found me. ;) ~W</em> Hello!

Oh, wait. That's Wende's job. Sorry, Wende. Namaste. I can barely comment on those lilacs. Lilacs are everything Spring for me, but most of all, they are FREE FLOWERS FOR MOM! I gave them to my mother and my children gave them to me, by the armloads. We always and forever have had lilacs- but not this year. Not in Florida. Today I head back to Chicago and first thing, I'm going in search of lilacs to swipe. There's no need to crush the stem because it's the perfect rip-off flower. And God wants you to steal them. He shows us this by making those bushes bloom even more prolifically the next year. ;-) For the brief period of time I went to fancy private girls school we had to celebrate May Day. In prom-like dresses (the foofy ones with petticoats), head wreathes and a giant Maypole. It was ridiculous, being the end of an era like that. The headmistress was about 100 years old and she just lived to watch us weave around that damn Maypole. It's probably because of May Day that I went back to public school to become a hippie. You're right. Being a Boomer IS scary. ____________________________________ No, thank you for saving me from myself.  I don't mind commentors answering questions.  Makes my life easier: we know I feel about working. Heh. As for pinching lilacs... boy do I have a story for you. :D ~W Kristen- literally, it means “I bow to you” but it’s a salutation that includes a gesture (your hands together, near your heart chakra, in a prayer like position), a slight bow of the head and the spoken word.
