Bossy keeps flowers around so long, they are only flowers in the academic sense.
These were presented to Bossy’s daughter after one of her performances of Bye Bye Birdie. When Bossy’s daughter is one week into working on her new script, you know it’s time to throw away the old flowers.
By the way, pictured in the upper left-hand corner is a framed photo of Bossy’s son, who was the cutest toddler who ever lived. Here he is as a baby and beyond.

March 19, 2010 at 8:36 amWhen your cutest toddler who ever lived was a toddler, he wore those same one-piece outfits that my cutest toddler that ever lived wore, with the blue and yellow stripes. What were those called? Anyone? It has been bugging me recently that I can’t think of the name, because it was an EVERYDAY word in my household at that time.

March 19, 2010 at 8:49 am–>Who is the woman in the black and white photo behind the flowers?
I keep flowers too long too. Once all the petals have fallen off then I take it all out to the compost bin.

March 19, 2010 at 9:48 amShouldn’t that be “Bossy’s son who was the cutest male toddler that ever lived?” Would want to give Bossy’s Daughter “the cutest female toddler that ever lived…in Bossy’s house” a complex, now would we??

March 19, 2010 at 10:21 amWould Bossy mind sending me her tulip petals? They would make a lovely fairy dress!

March 19, 2010 at 1:10 pmEntire Counsel! Dead flowers are very bad Feng Shui! Move them out to the compost bin as soon as they begin looking iffy!
La Suzette says
March 19, 2010 at 1:11 pmOK, but Cactus Petunia’s repurposing of the dead petals IS very GOOD Feng Shui. That’s awesome, CP!

March 19, 2010 at 1:43 pmYou do make dead flowers look gorgeous. It’s true. And that letter to your son on his 18th birthday choked me up this morning. Bravo.

After removal of said tulip corpses I’d love to see that photo of Bossy’s Lovely Mom unobstructed!
