Lavender - how i love thee

I used to hate this dang plant.  

But maybe it's the turning of the corner into adulthood why I like it now...maybe it's from living with Coleen...hmmm...???  Nonetheless, this plant has been blessing me in this, the LAST week of school!  

And who knew it had teeny, tiny flowers in the ends?  I never noticed that. 

Let it begin!

Spring seems to be coming early to The Old Pueblo - anyone else agree? We have an apricot tree at school and it's been blooming this week...beautiful no?  And all around town other fruit trees are starting to bloom as well. It's a lovely time of year in Tucson! (if it weren't for all those allergies!)
