Happy June!
I love the month of June; School is out for the kids, It’s the perfect time of weather, the flowers are all blooming.
It’s a great month!
So last week I stopped by to visit an old neighbor of mine . . . and when I say old neighbor, I mean from my old neighborhood, Not that my neighbor is old, just to clarify 🙂
Anyway, like this time every year I walked away from her home with a big bouquet of peonies in my hands.
I’m pretty good at hinting how much I love her peonies, and how great they would look in my kitchen.
Aren’t they gorgeous!
And they smell just heavenly.
I did, I brought them into my kitchen so I could smell them as I do the dishes.
I also want to share this basket I picked up at Home goods a while back. I actually got two of them thinking they would look great hanging on the wall, I’m still thinking about it.
So in the mean time I have one of them on my counter top full of dishtowels.
I think it is such a cool basket with a wicker-like trim.
So I do actually have my own peony plant in my yard, I was sooooo super excited when I saw it coming up this spring, but I only got one bloom. It’s a new plant and I can’t wait for it to grow bigger. In the mean time I’ll just have to remember to make a special visit to my old neighbor
( from my old neighborhood) every June.
Thanks for stopping by,
Emily
