A conversation at the mall . .

Me: Thanks for the maps and information. They'll come in handy.
Information desk lady: You're very welcome. Oh, your children are so beautiful.
Me: Why, thank you very much.
Info desk lady: And how is it that none of them got your gorgeous red hair?
Mairyn: Because she dyes it!!

Thank you, Mairyn, no, really; Thank. You.


** Although the lady did say that it looked very natural and never would have guessed that I color it. That's the look I was going for! ;) Then again, what else would she say when your child outs you to a perfect stranger?



A springy picture I took this last week. I want to know what kind of tree this is and does it do well in Idaho?

Lydia, it's a dogwood, and I don't think they do well in Idaho because they need lots and lots of water. But you can always try!

Lydia said...

Thanks! Darn it, I really like them! I guess it's Aspens & river rock for my yard.

Ah, Mairyn. She's so hilarious :)
