My wife really enjoys flowers. I really enjoy seeing her face light up when I bring her roses!  However, she fusses a little bit about how she doesn’t really know how to arrange them, or take proper care of them.  I’ve found a U-Tube video by Proflowers that I’m going to show her to help her with that issue.  I’ve just watched the video and I think it might help her to relax a little bit the next time I bring her some roses!

I’ve been driving around the last few days and noticing that the lilacs and tulips are in full bloom!  I think the crab-apple trees are blooming, too.  I’m not quite sure of that, a few weeks ago some trees were blooming that I thought were crab-apples, but some folks told me that they were red-buds.  Now the trees that I think might be crab-apples are a deeper red-violet than the ones I saw a few weeks ago, and the flowers are smaller, so I am wondering if these new ones are really the red-buds?!

Mother’s Day is coming up and I want to buy my mother a new diamond ring to show her how much I love her.  I want to do some comparison shopping through a new website that I found out about, www.diamondpriceguru.com. 

Their website is a plethora of information of diamonds.  They have a great and informational article explaining the twenty most popular diamond scams, and how to avoid them.  I read the article; it was much more informative than I expected and I learned a lot of things from it!  I’m glad that I read it and I think that everyone who is interested in buying a diamond should read it too! 

The website also explains in great detail what the 4c’s of diamonds are, color, clarity, carat, and cut.  It explains why each of them is important, and how they effect diamond prices.

In addition, the website explains why it is a good idea to buy a loose diamond and have it put into a setting purchased separately.  You can save up to 30% on the cost of a diamond ring by doing it that way!

Their website also has a link to proposal stories.  I read a few of them; some were really funny, some were really sweet.  Worth a read if you want some tips on what to do or not do if you are thinking about proposing!

The site has a diamond purchasing wizard that helps the diamond customer find the best price on the diamond that you want to buy.  You fill in the price that you want to pay, the carat weight you want to buy, and click on the shape(s) of diamond(s) you are considering, and very quickly it shows you the results - a list of merchants that have the diamond you are looking for!  It compares the 11 most reputable online stores with more than 400 000 diamonds.
