As i was chasing down the delinquent pooch this evening, I had to walk through 3 yards to retrieve him. Each yard had a lilac bush, and the fragrance was spectacular.Lilacs are my absolute favorite flower, it is just a shame they are here for such a short time. But for that short time, my house is filled with their smells. I gather several large bouquets and strategically place them around the house so that i can smell them everywhere i go. Not to mention their beauty alone is worth having them everywhere.
I must confess, i am a lilac stealer, i sneak lilacs off the neighbors trees.......when no one is looking. I will be doing that in about 2 days.
I feel better for confessing now. Enjoy your lilacs people!

Well, I thought this post was going to be about something completely different!!!!!! Beautiful flowers.
our next-door neighbor used to grow beautiful roses. Every Mother's Day our mom would get a nice bouquet of them. That neighbor didn't really like us kids too much. Wonder why? We still joke about giving mom stolen roses.
perhaps you thought......baking or cooking noble pig? Fooled you!
Thanks for stopping by Dana!
Now I know where I got it from! I just walked 4 miles yesterday and stole as much Lilacs as my hands could hold!! Turned out to be 3 bouquets worth! My own lilac bush is looking pretty pathetic...the cats use it as a bed and a jungle gym.
