Happy Labo(u)r Day! The muguets (Lily of the Valley) in my yard bloomed a bit earlier this year - just in time. My Madeleine enjoys them too.

What a nice patch of lilies of the valley! Didn't see a single sprig yesterday! The little grocers don't have them with their sidewalk bouquets and at a florist..I bought a bunch many years ago...they are exorbitant! And Madeleine looks lovely too!

We saw muguets all over Paris.....even bought a little bouquet from Red Cross people, to whom I was very happy to pay 3 euros. I love the smell of those tiny flowers......such a sweet fragrance.....and my last day in Paris (such a beautiful one, might I add ) was spent doing a lot of strolling while smelling my muguets every time I stopped walking. At the airport, Shlomo and I were each given a little bouquet, which we decided to put in our hand luggage, hoping those little flowers would survive the trip home........ and they did !!! The first thing I did when I entered the house was place them in pretty little vases. ;D ;D ;D
