The
Peapod Playlist

Lately, I’ve been tempted by those $6, 10-stem bouquets of tulips in the grocery store floral section. 

I say “tempted” because for me, those tulip bouquets last approximately two days before I forget to water them. It’s a great idea in theory—to bring a little sunshine to my office—but not a great idea for a person who can barely remember to water her plants every week. 

While listening to Hurray for the Riff Raff’s “Rhododendron” last week, I wondered: are there many songs about flowers? A quick Spotify search answered that question: Yes, there are. And they combine to create a playlist that’s equal parts spring-yearning, introspective, and sultry. I love when my weird playlist ideas work out.
