Last night four of the six grandbabes spent the night – Mallory & Clara already had plans to go with Rick & Emma to the high school football game – and we tinted some flowers. Normally we do this every summer with Queen Anne’s Lace that grows in abundance up & down our road, but this year I just never thought about it until the flowers had come & gone. So this week when I was in the grocery I noticed they had their cut flowers on sale, so I got a few for us to try. Here is June putting her flower in the yellow food coloring that she chose to color her first one.
We checked before we went to bed – just a couple of hours after we’d started the process – & they were already starting to show signs of some color. The kids were SO excited. Good times
