Happy May Day!


My daughters and I have a May Day tradition of making little baskets and sneaking them onto our friends doors. I love the celebration of spring and flowers and warm days to come. The girls love the 'ring and run' aspect.

We've done paper cones filled with candy and mason jars filled with flowers but I have to say that I think this year's basket is one of my favorites. Not only do I think the tissue paper flowers are sweet but I love that the girls schemed it up themselves. I mentioned at dinner last night that I've been so busy that I hadn't planned on baskets for the first time in about 10 years. The girls disappeared into their room and began a frenzy of flower and cone making. Yey! The tradition lives!

Any traditions in your town on May Day?

Here's to the coming season...Happy May Day!
