Happy May Day - 2008

Many places in Europe May 1st « May Day » it’s a day to enjoy a new beginning of life.

In France where I come from it’s a costume to offer those nice little flowers that smell sooo nice, the “Lily of the valley” So just for you a little branch of “Lily” to wish you health and happiness for the rest of the year.

What do you do with your burnt light bulbs? Well me I paint on them of course, it makes nice ornaments to put in the Christmas tree or even hang anywhere around the house. And it’s also a good thing for the recycle projects.
