For the last two weeks the dining room table has been graced with the presence of lovely bunches of lilacs.
In addition to being beautiful, they make the house smell so lovely. In a way that only fresh flowers brought in from the out of doors can do.
Oh, and by the way, if your clusters of flowers start to look droopy... dunk them in a sink of cool water and recut the stems at an angle. Then make a cut through the bottom of the stem to open it up a bit and pop them back in a vase filled with fresh water. It works, just like the lilac lady told me it would.
