Dear Chicago House,
Now I can’t really complain…we have had no snow this winter and even had the odd day where ” no coat was required” …gasp! However on your grey days, where there is a smell of snow in the air and the weather man guaranteeing our first storm, I need a color pick me up. A quick visit to your recently decorated dining room can give me a quick fix but here is something else that works equally well. A small bunch of beautiful irises
I got these at Trader Joes where you can pick up a great selection of blooms without blowing the budget.
Aren’t these just lovely!
Love from
Creative in Chicago

O, why didn't my comment stick blogger? Why are you toying with me?
I just want to share with Creative in Chicago how much I endorse her love of fresh cut flowers. It resonates with me … you see, I quit smoking on 2.14.2011 ….
After 25 years …
And my quit enticement was always having fresh cut flowers in our home. A reminder of my commitment …

Oh, was it the Trader Joes on Lincoln that is just a few short blocks from my house …?
I promised myself fresh flowers each week after I quit smoking after 20+ years last year on Valentine's Day … much cheaper than a pack a day in Chicago!

Flowers are much better that cigarettes! Bravo for quitting Linda… it deserves 2 comments!
