Very lovely! It's a daffodil Easter here.
Front-Ranger:
Jeff, this is as close as I could come to a thread about Lent. Why don't we start one?
Jeff Wrangler:
Maybe it was part of somebody's blog. I was sure we had a thread somewhere about "What are you giving up for Lent," or something like that.

I was looking at this picture again, and it reminded how many decades ago, the wealthy owner of a tobacco company ( :P ) in my home town was a great tulip fancier. His front and backyard gardens were planted with thousands of tulips, and when they were in bloom, the public was invited to walk through the gardens to enjoy them.
I remember being told that this man bought so many tulip bulbs that a breeder named a new variety after him, or maybe after his wife; something like that.

I was debating making a Pizzagaina this year, but I've never made one before. LOL Not sure I want to make the attempt.
