She blew on her spoon and took a careful bite. “I planted six dozen white tulips along the driveway and some more narcissuses by the front steps. Can you believe they’re already starting to come up?”
She brushed loose breadcrumbs from her hands. Her mood brightened when she talked about her plans for a spring garden. We’d found a common interest and had shared seed catalogues over the past few weeks, circling our favorite varieties of flowers and vegetables.
