Something Flashy to Wet Your Appetite

I did it!!!!! I posted a picture. With this new knowledge and skill there's no telling what I'll do next. I was just composing an email announcing the birth of my blog when I thought, wait a minute no one will come back to visit if I don't put up something flashy. So ladies and gentlemen I give you tulips (courtesy of Sarah Curtis). I love tulips! I loved going to temple square in the spring to see all the tulips. Last year John took me to Thanksgiving point on my birthday for the Tulip Festival, they have over 1 million tulips on top of the normal flora and fauna, can I just say-spectacular! I was smiling and skipping all day. It's impossible to be unhappy when surrounded by beautiful flowers. Last year we also tried to have what we affectionately called the Tullis Tulip Extravaganza of 2006. We planted the bulbs with sufficient time to freeze tended to our flower boxes, then one day they started poking up out of the dirt. They grew and grew and you could see the bud ready to bloom then it either got really hot or we planted lemons, but they never bloomed. A sad story indeed. Despite this travesty my love for tulips remains.
