Don’t Forget to Stop and Smell the Roses

By Erin

Everywhere you look, spring is blooming. Time for new growth, new beginnings. Sometimes I get so busy with work, I forget to stop and smell the roses. This weekend I had a chance to do this though, and boy was I glad I did. Look what was there to greet me!  I love spending time in my garden and taking care of them. Hope you enjoy these spring blooms from my backyard! It’s just too bad you can’t smell how fragrant they are on here!

Spring Is Here

Just a few of the roses in bloom and one of the thousands of orange blossoms on the blood orange tree. I am excited to see so many blossoms! This means that next year there will be an abundance of blood oranges to look forward to. I only wish you could smell the delightful smell that these orange blossoms are creating in the backyard. It is heavenly! A very juicy, flowery, citrusy delight to go outside to.
