Yellow Babies

Brr! It's freezing cold in Boston today! So cold that for the first time in my memory, the flower seller in Downtown Crossing had all his blooms safely tucked inside his tiny kiosk, instead of displayed in buckets on the sidewalk as he usually does.

I slipped inside to see if he might have any cheerful bunches of Daffodils, but there were none to be had. Instead, I came away with a bunch of tiny yellow roses with the unfortunate name of "Yellow Baby" which just makes me think of a poor jaundiced newborn under the bilirubin lights!
