Having fresh flowers in the home is one of the simplest ways to make your home cozy. Of course, the more exotic/interesting the flower, the more expensive it is. But sometimes you have to splurge because loving flowers is very Zen. You enjoy them while they are here.<br /><br />JenniferJennifer Campaniolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01584812688202324497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494416304107404915.post-37728165993191537092009-05-21T00:05:38.775-06:002009-05-21T00:05:38.775-06:00Thanks, everyone.

Thanks. <br /><br />WinW: Your poem about your father and rivers was very moving. I can't help but think of floral design as a form of art, though it's fleeting. <br /><br />Protege: Your floral design skills and passion are there in the garden photos on your blog. I always enjoy them. <br /><br />Stephanie: I do remember living with cats, and that problem. Etienne sounds like he's worth not having them. ♥<br /><br />Gal: yes, yellow ranunculus. Gorgeous!<br /><br />Muchas gracias, amigas.sallymandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15832828827048897372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494416304107404915.post-88803290245262960892009-05-18T22:59:00.000-06:002009-05-18T22:59:00.000-06:00I need that third bouquet.

They're certainly more beautiful than any flowers I have ever had in my home. <br /><br />And none like them are likely to be in my home in the near future, either: one of my cats, Etienne, looks at almost all plant matter as dessert. It was fortunate that I did some research and got rid of all my potentially toxic houseplants before we adopted the boys because he systematically devoured every one but the geraniums. I tried putting a tempting border of tall wheatgrass in containers around some of them, but that didn't stop him - he'd just step on the wheatgrass to get to the plants. He is hilariously voracious. Oh, well. My kitties bring such joy to my life that it's worth sacrificing my houseplants to him.<br /><br />I have learned that gerbera daisies are safe for him to eat, as well as few other varieties that I like, but it's such a hassle figuring out if everything in a bouquet is non-poisonous before bringing it home, and then trying to keep him from devouring them while I'm trying to enjoy them, that we've all but instituted a ban on fresh flowers in our apartment! It's okay, though - there are plenty of fresh flowers for us to enjoy in the world outside our apartment. And the eye candy on your blog.Stephanie N.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09582031215488414276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494416304107404915.post-25426587923003367702009-05-17T08:50:00.000-06:002009-05-17T08:50:00.000-06:00Beautiful, beautiful!
