Thank you to Miss Beverly at How Sweet the Sound, who sponsors Pink Saturday every week. Please visit her blog and link to over 100 other participants who love pink and post it every Pink Saturday.
Each year... I try to find Peonies in June...
Stay tuned... more blooming to come next week...
and now... Part 2
This will be a little bit different Pink Saturday post for most of you... but Beverly knows me... and she knows I prefer the odd and obscure... today we'll be visiting Please Don't Eat Sushi, Love Mom...
Adam is the keeper of this blog... and each week he posts a letter written to him by his mom... he also posts a photo of the letter... with a few little side notes if Mom mentions anyone in particular... like Uncle Michael... who has become one of my favorites...
I know, that on the face of it, the premise doesn't really sound that interesting... but... well... you judge for yourself... all I know is I have laughed so hard I've cried... and been touched by the sentiment that his mom expresses in what one would only have to call... her own little special way... Here's the pink... this post was titled "Over"...
Now.. I know you're busy today, looking at all the wonderful pink... but take a moment to bookmark Please Don't Eat Sushi... and go back and visit... you will love what Adam... and his wonderful Mom have to say... If you visit Adam, leave him a comment... he needs them... and tell him Dixie sent ya!
Living the Pink life and enjoying a little Sushi, down here in French Lique...

You're right, Dixie. That is just too funny! I wonder is mom still living? I'll have to go back and read more. Thanks for sharing that. xxoo Nancy
Oh, I really do love peonies too. They smell so very yummy. I am blessed in my part of Texas because I can grow them but they have a very short bloom period.
I like thinking outside the box a little also but your the master. I'll check sushi out and let you know how it hit me.
Now I'm going back to the hammock.

Oh, those pink peonies are gorgeous!...Christine
Miss Dixie- I have never seen a real life peony.
Next- Your list of books you have read was next to the post box and it made me wonder- with gardening and blogging, when are you reading?
I love to read and have always been an avid reader- but blogging is moving in on that!Help-

You simply MUST tell me where you order the peonies!!! You can tell from my blog that I am addicted!!! I run around all over town trying to find them...all spring!!! I can't believe I never thought to order them!!! I am the QUEEN of internet shopping;)!!! I really woul appreciate the info..if you don't mind.
Have a wonderful weekend!!!

That makes me want to plant some peonies! Those are really gorgeous!
And thanks for the tip on that Please Don't Eat the Sushi blog. I'm heading over there now! It sound hilarious!

What a wonderful way to pamper yourself...the gift of flowers.
You are a woman after my own heart...I buy myself birthday cake even when it's not my birthday.
I truly would never have thought of ordering my favorite flowers, though.
Debbie
Oh Dixie, I just went and looked at that site for a second, and I saw that you could watch the don't eat the sushi video on youtube. Have you watched it? HILARIOUS!

I grow peonies in my yard. Love them. Years ago I bought several and put them by the side of the house.They grew like crazy.
A few years I decided to divide them and put them in other places of the yard.
Well,they did not like that. They did not grow much at all, so this year I put them back to where they had been growing.
Even though they are now small, they all have blooms on them this year. Hopefully next year they will be big again.

yes, your scratch and sniff module is not working (dang it)! LOL....
BUT
what a glorious delight~the beautiful sight of peonies!
now, i'm off to check out your links :)
(thank goodness i did not have to wait THAT long!)
I will definitely visit over and those peonies are beautiful! Oh, lovin' that tablescape on your header!
Dixie-if my mother actually knew WHAT a computer was, she'd be typing this! Maybe I'll ask her to send you a letter! Yeah. That's what I'll do! Let me know where she can mail it.
And seriously, Thank you for asking people to check out my blog.
You help me spread the neurosis better than anyone I've ever known! My Uncle Michael would be proud.
All my best-

Peonies are beautiful- do yours come with the little ants that eat away at the bud so they open?
I'm off to read Please Don't eat Sushi........
Happy PS!
Very pretty flowers!.. I will have to check sushi-site soon!.. It sounds like a fun read! Happy Pink Saturday, and hope you're having a wonderful week!
Happy Reallllllly Late Pink Sat., Dixie!! My life has been filled to the brim with stuff I have to do and places I have to be over the last couple of weeks. My bloggy visits have been so awful!!
