Favorite Quote

Elizabeth Hay is such a vivid writer and this is one of my favorite quotes (even though the book itself didn't do it for me).

I left the library and bicycled home through a city of tulips, thanks to a grateful Dutch queen.  Every year they bloom, then lose their heads to an army of black squirrels that go about them like little guillotines, decapitating, decapitating.

I can just imagine this in my mind and it makes me smile.  Squirrels rule!
