Rainy Day Blooms

I adore flowers, I prefer to be given some by my love E, but he is slacking in the romance department these days and with all the wet weather I needed a pick me up. I picked up these blooms at Trader Joe's. When I got home I chopped them to size built them into the vase with pebbles to secure them and then stacked orange slices around the vase (on the inside) to add a dash more color and scent to the room. I love the way citrus fruit looks sliced up and added to flower arrangements.

I decided as I was admiring my flowers tonight... I much rather have fresh flowers in a couple of rooms in the house than Starbucks coffee during the week. Starbucks, is expensive and it's a quick treat, but flowers they are beautiful and can keep a smile on your face all week long. Less Buckys more Blooms.
