Beautiful Things

In the midst of winter, it’s easy to forget that spring is really just around the corner. It’s even easier to forget that you can bring a taste of spring into your home with some fresh flowers. A breath of spring, really.

I buy fresh flowers every week. I have to, for my sanity. I take in the smell of them and it makes me happier. Besides the gorgeous color, which every home needs a little more of, the fresh flowers make me feel closer to nature. Bringing a little of the outdoors in, if you will.

It doesn’t have to cost a fortune, either. I am perfectly happy picking up a cellophane-wrapped bunch of flowers on my way out of Costco.  If you need some perking up this winter, you should do it too.
