For whatever reason, I grew up thinking that buying flowers was self-indulgent and wasteful. It was only appropriate if someone died, and slightly suspect even then.
As an adult, I am ridiculously pro-flower. I buy flowers with nearly every grocery trip. I usually don't spent much, and having them around improves my quality of life to an extent I would never have expected. So that's my Happy Housewife thought today--no matter what else you have going on, if you can swing it, buy yourself some flowers.
Mine are peonies.

I dont buy flowers for the same reason, but I definitely should, a girl deserves to indulge herself, life is short.
Have a wonderful weekend ahead.

I think flowers are a great way to perk up a room. However, if you have a local grower or farmers' market, I encourage everyone to buy locally grown flowers. :)

I don't buy them often enough but a new supermarket opened near me that has an amazing variety. . . for very reasonable prices
