Happy Bulbs

Flower Friday is a shout-out for all of us paperwhite narcissus fans to start planting up our bulbs to enjoy this season. The above photo from last year in our green filled kitchen in the city shortly after they started to bloom. Some years we get up to three rounds of bulbs to bloom and enjoy the paperwhites into February if I start planting them now. My personal favorite is having them in glass containers so you can see the magical dance the roots perform for you. We have an old friend who stayed with us last eve from San Francisco. Part of the dinner conversation was about how vital it is during these times of so much tumult to surround ourselves with beauty. To revel in it. To see it in the small things and to have it bring us big joy. Cheers to that!
