Entries for April 24 - 1911 and 2011 (flowers)

Rita's Entry: Monday, April 24, 1911
Lesson at 9:30.  OK.  New piece. Sarasate Faust, lso Rode caprices.  Mr. Brune stood outside and laughed at me.  Practiced as usual.

IN RITA'S DAY: In 1910, 15 American florists agreed to serve out-of-town customers by exchanging orders via telegraph.  They called their service FTD ( Florists' Telegraph Delivery).

TODAY: FTD has become Florists' Transworld Delivery.  But beyond this, you can get all kinds of flowers at your local A&P store!




Judy's Entry: Easter Sunday, April 24, 2011
Had my son and his fiancee, my daughter and her husband and his parents for Easter.  Very nice time and there were flowers!  It just made me feel like Spring is really here.  I've posted them to help me remember how beautiful everything looked!
