H is for Hyacinths!

Today is dedicated to the letter "H", brought to you by the Blogging from A-Z Challenge.

This is the first time we've planted blue hyacinths, and they've bloomed nicely!

Hyacinths have a waxy, dense flower with a heady, sweet scent. You can smell them several feet away, in fact.

E is for Earth Day: An Alphabet Book

Today is dedicated to the letter "E", brought to you by the Blogging from A-Z Challenge.

“Earth Day celebrates all the life on earth, from apricots to junebugs to zebras. The wonders of nature leap from the page, reminding us that every day is a reason to say thank you and that miracles are as simple as ABC.” – From the book jacket copy

From alligators to daisies, hazelnuts to waterfalls, Earth Day: An Alphabet Bookcelebrates the many wonders surrounding us. Coconuts, icicles, Queen Anne’s lace—even tornadoes find a place in this simple, brightly illustrated children’s book. 

Whether celebrating Earth Day, cultivating gratitude or introducing children to flora, fauna, food and weather from around the world, this delightful alphabet book reminds both adults and little ones that some of the best things in life are right under our feet, in the water, on a tree or swirling about us. 

This year, Earth Day 2012 is April 22.

Take Time to Smell the Tulips

Just took this pic of our orange tabby, Stewart. 

He's taking time out to smell the newly blossomed tulips.

Are you taking the time to smell the flowers?
