So, for Valentine’s Day Mr. OverKill did not buy me roses. He also did not buy me flowers for our anniversary. He claims it was because he knew we were going to find snow, and he figured that they would be dead when we got back, so what’s the point, right?
Well, while we were on our little excursion to find snow, we also found a Trader Joe’s. We found said Trader Joe’s on Valentine’s Day. They were giving away roses to all the female customers that came in that day. So, ha ha, I got my roses anyways. I really didn’t think they would last, I mean we had to drive home the next day. I thought for sure they would be dead by the time we had spent 12 hours in the truck.
But, they looked all right when we got home, so I trimmed the stems and put them in some water.
Well, here is how they look 8 days and 12 hours in the truck with no water later….
One more reason Trader Joe’s is endeared to my heart :)
