Ask for Salt & Tequila!
Just wanted to give you a small snicker at work. 🙂
The lemon joke actually has to do with how we keep Daisy’s memory alive.
A Meyer Lemon Tree. Marcus had the idea to get a potted tree / plant to remember Daisy. We move around a lot, so we knew the plant would have to be mobile. I did some research and selected the Improved Meyer Lemon tree because it is a good house plant that has fragrant blossoms all winter and produces tasty lemons. I wanted something more than a boring green plant. I chose a screaming yellow pot to put the tree in because it makes me smile. It is bright and cheerful and totally reminds me of Daisy. The Meyer Lemon tree was a great choice! The blooms throw off the most wonderful fragrance! I recommend the tree for anyone interested in blooming plants or growing citrus. And I have big plans for those lemons!

We remember Daisy each time we get a whiff of a blossom and I know we will think fondly of her each time we use a lemon.
