A Hyacinth & My Nana


I am the world's worst naturalist. I only know the names of a handful of trees, flowers, and bugs (most of which I detest), but I do know this flower. I wish I could post smells on a blog because it smells divine! Seriously, I can't stop sniffing it! And for those of you who don't already know this flower is a hyacinth.

The hyacinth makes me think of my Nana (great-grandma) because it was her favorite flower. She was a great lady. She makes me think of pancakes and homemade syrup, dentures and rouge, costume jewelry and support hose. She was an awesome great-grandma and I miss her so much.

This was taken in 1993 when she was 88 years old.
