hahaha...my first thought was, "hey, wait a minute...you just had umpteen million inches of snow...how could you get tulips from that?" But, I read on and saw how that happened...what a very nice and thoughtful husband you have! And, by the way, the tulips are beautiful!

They are beautiful. I agree with you. Someone gave me a bundle of pink tulips last week and it improved my mood every time I looked at them.

It is amazing how a simple tulip lifts our spirts on a cold and blustery New England day. What a thoughtful husband
