It was July and Mrs. T. was off playing bridge. I decided it was time to check out some garden flowers, when a rare inspiration hit me. Surprise the lady of the house with some bouquets, an
art form I had never tried before. Okay, take a look and try to hold back the spontaneous laughing! btw the wall hanging on the living room wall in the background is from my mom many years ago. I can still see her in the rocking chair busily stitching or knitting or whatever the technique used was called...
She was quite pleased. I've been wondering if they have a "beginners division" in the county fair next year? Probably not....:)
Dear Troutbirder, congratulations on your flower arrangements. The blooms just seem to have arranged themselves into beauty. And you had something to do with that! Peace.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely. I miss having a garden. Your description of your mom brought back some nice memories of my own mother. Mom was always good with doing things like that. Me? I'm all thumbs. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is all about what looks good to you. You had some great vases to start with. Good work!
ReplyDeleteI like them:) You are a floral designer:)
ReplyDeleteWay to go, Troutbirder. You are definitely a five-star husband.
ReplyDeleteAt least you didn't pick any of the rare specimens she was saving for propagation!
ReplyDeleteBut that was what my late husband would call "very thoughty" of you!
Good job!
