PRINTApple Blossoms Seem Like a Good Choice
While I truly enjoy red roses (and the meaning behind them) I have learned that there are different and just as powerful messages conveyed by other flowers.
According to Flowers for Valentine’s Day,
- Apple Blossoms convey good fortune
- Daffodils convey joy and happiness
- Orange blossoms convey eternal love, marriage and fruitfulness and fertility.
At this stage of my life, these are messages that are equally important to me. So let’s see what my husband turns up with this Valentine’s Day.

If you notice a hole in the upper left-hand corner of your Farmers' Almanac, don't return it to the store! That hole isn't a defect; it's a part of history. Starting with the first edition of the Farmers' Almanac in 1818, readers used to nail holes into the corners to hang it up in their homes, barns, and outhouses (to provide both reading material and toilet paper). In 1910, the Almanac's publishers began pre-drilling holes in the corners to make it even easier for readers to keep all of that invaluable information (and paper) handy.
