favorites

this season has been one of my favorite springs in a long time.

beauty is springing up all around me and i thought i'd share.

jami nato talked about mrs. meyer's geranium scent on her blog a few weeks ago. and like a true stalker, i went out and bought it. and i'm obsessed. 

it's lovely. i also got the hand soap.

another thing i love but didn't take a picture of is my dish soap. i know it sounds silly. -a while ago on a blog...i can't remember which, they mentioned some tips to make household chores a bit more appealing and uplifting. one of the things the lady talked about was using a dish soap you loved the smell of. i found one, and it makes my heart happy. it's the little things, folks.

 these beauties were blooming when i went to kentucky

 we've seen an unusual amount of rain here the past few weeks and it's been amazing.

it's probably still less than we actually need to avoid a drought, but for may in texas, we're doing alright!
