A gift from my friend Barbara, these tulips certainly brighten up the basement. I had no idea where the vases were packed, so I used the bottom half of my Dutch windmill cookie jar. Very appropriate!

I love tulips.

Tomorrow Banjo Man has his first root canal and the crew from Lowe’s installs the new counter.

I hope both procedures are performed perfectly–with no pain and no surprises.

I’ll keep you posted.
