little purple pansies

First off, I appreciate all of the love and support after my last post.  Ya'll in the blogging community sure know how to make a girl feel 10000x better!  Thanks so much!  Now, onto tonight's thoughts...

There is something completely invigorating about having fresh flowers in your home.  I firmly believe is having fresh flowers in the home at all times.  The hubs never understood this when we first were hitched, probably still doesn't understand it today, but he puts up with it and has accepted his wife is crazy sometimes.  It's cool...

What things are must haves in your homes?  Do you share the love of the floral or is there something else you have that brightens your day whenever you see it?
