Stop and Smell the Stinky Flowers

A few days ago our whole yard smelled like Bath and Body works. The smell coming from what I think is a crab apple tree was amazing. I even picked a bunch of blossoms to bring inside. Unfortunately blossoms never stay for long.
This morning when I went out I kept smelling something akin to skunk smell. This doesn't bother me cause honestly I kind of like skunk smell...I'm weird I know, but not alone in this opinion. It took me a while to figure out that while the tulips and daffodils growing in our yard may look pretty, they don't have a very pretty fragrance. The smell is obviously not enough to deter Annie and Alex from their daily flower smelling... a practice that leaves them with yellow pollen noses for the rest of the morning.
