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

Oh, was it the Trader Joes on Lincoln that is just a few short blocks from my house ...?
ReplyDeleteI 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!

O, why didn't my comment stick blogger? Why are you toying with me?
ReplyDeleteI 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 ...

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