When I was a child my maternal Grandparents spent summers in a cottage on the farm owned by my paternal Grandparents – which led to some idyllic summers spent on my bicycle riding from house to house collecting cookies ;o) It also led to my maternal Grandmother creating a spring ritual with me of planting Morning Glories in a bucket outside the front door of their cottage. It was one of her favorite flowers:
Her favorite were the blue ones so I make sure to plant some of those every year (I like the pink, myself) ;o)
