Last night, when I went into my bedroom, it smelled weird. There was a beautifully sweet fragrance. It was like a woman had just been in the room and her perfume lingered. I was confused. Was I about to be mugged by a woman in an evening gown? Was my house being haunted by the ghost of a rich lady?
No, it was just my calamondin orange tree. It’s blooming!
So sweet smelling…
After I knew what the fragrance was, I was delighted. My bedroom smelled like orange blossoms! Mmm… I breathed extra deeply as I went to sleep last night.
Yay!
I hope that plant is honored by such a lovely description. 🙂
Did you fall asleep to the “Orange Blossom Special”?

Did you already know that song existed, or did you google “orange blossom song”? Are you a country music listener?
I know this song because Joanna plays the violin. We have a slightly simplified version of it, and all of Joanna’s violin teachers have made sure that she knows of it.
I am NOT a country music listener, but I do have to know some country music (and dances) so that I can participate at all of our wedding dances around these here parts.
Wow!! What a cool and beautiful plant! How neat!!! I want one!!!
