Editor's Note: The author did not lie about his lack of card playing yesterday. At the time the blog was posted he had, indeed, abstained. What he didn't consider was the evil intent of the Queen Bee, aka "the witch", who later enticed him into a game of Skip-Bo and then soundly trounced him.
Sadly, he didn't learn his lesson. The whipping continued today.
------------------------------------------------
Speaking of the Queen Bee, she continued, and completed, her Wandering Jew cutting project today.
Needless to say, I stayed away from her scissors.
-------------------------------------------------
Easter Lillies don't specifically bloom when you want them to, so when they are just about ready to burst out.....
...they are loaded onto carts and sent to the cooler, to stall their growth.
Then, a few days before Easter they are retrieved and packed for shipment, timed to open just after they arrive. Not sure where David's orders will be going this year, but Florida and the gulf states are typical recipients. Last year, as you may recall, they were given away at the end of his driveway. I hope the goodwill from that gesture remains strong this year.
---------------------------------------------------------
Have to go now. I'm being called to the card table.
Stay well.
