flower envy

[lagilman]

I am having major flower envy. A co-worker just got the most amazing, astonishing bouquet of eighteen bright pink roses, complete with baby's breath and a huge pale pink ribbon.

They smell delicious, like spiced vanilla frosting, and everyone's making excuses to walk by her desk and look at/smell them.

I admit it, I'm a flower-slut. I adore them. I would have my home filled with flowers on a replaced-weekly basis if I could only afford them. If I were ever to become obscenely wealthy, that's what I'd have before anything else; a standing order at the local florist.

Failing that, I may have to stop by the florist on the way home today and buy myself a carnation or something.

The soil around my house grows rocks. So this year I began fiddling with container gardening and now have lovely flowers on the deck and on the steps up to the deck. Very pretty...and the humming birds are delighted.
