Fairies Poached Eggs

Whilst walking around Ham House the other weekend, as one does, the lawn was awash with daisies. I knew I'd read a good daisy quote recently.

"Audrey squatted down on the grass at Catherine's feet...amongst the green blades, her fingers picking the flowers neatly up and dropping them into the water...
'Fairies poached eggs!' she said, pointing to the floating daisies." Hostages to Fortune Elizabeth Cambridge

Now to try and place this in a sentence this summer....

    I am going to be more organic and accepting of my scrubby lawn this year, and welcome the daisies/fairies poached eggs

      Lilac - Just think of the daisy chains you'll be able to make too.
