According to the calendar, this Thursday is to be the first day of Spring. I'm pretty sure when I checked the weather it was forecasting snow flurries for that day (I love snow). For those of you who need to put a little Spring in your day may I suggest buying yourself some flowers? Tulips are available now in all colours and types and if looked after well, will last a good 7-10 days.
On Avenue Road, just south of Davenport you will find no less than four flower shops bursting with blooms. They're open seven days a week usually from 8am - 8pm. The flowers are fresh and affordable. You can pop in and out of each store comparing prices and selection and buy from one place or a little from all four of them (I seem to gravitate towards Jong Young Flower Market). If you need flowers to take with you to a dinner party and are overwhelmed by all the choices, just ask the friendly staff to help you out and in seconds they will whip together an amazing bouquet.
