You know it’s May in Kyiv when the babushky on the street start selling lilacs and lilies-of-the-valley.
These make me so happy. And they smell absolutely wonderful - I get a whiff of fragrance every time I walk by them. This arrangement is pretty much exactly what I wanted for my wedding bouquet, but was told that lilies-of-the-valley were too expensive in Indiana in June. I got these for the equivalent of about $4. I guess we should have gotten married in Ukraine in May. But who knows how things might have turned out then…
