donuts?
yes, donuts.
Each year when the week of Mother's Day rolls around, that phrase comes out of my mouth automatically. Reminiscent of the commercial; the alarm goes off much too early, my feet swing out of bed, I try to wake up...and the words utter from my lips, followed by a sigh..and a smirk: "time to make the donuts".
It's a long, long week at the flower shop... with many hours spent creating beautiful bouquets for Mothers, Grandmothers, and other "special women".
When it comes to Mother's Day, there just is no gift quite like a bouquet of fresh, beautiful, fragrant flowers.
Don't forget to order your bouquet early!
And it's okay to send it a little early too...couldn't you use some extra bragging rights?

Winter.
Still hangin' on in April...

I'm so glad that I can walk through my garden each day!

it ain't over 'til it's over...
25 days ago I was wearing flip flops
winter, or what we had of it, seemed to have taken an early leave
and for the first days of "spring", it was actually spring!
and then...
a snow day in the middle of April
o.m.g......only in northern Minnesota
schools closed from one end of the Iron Range to the other
I guess old Mother Nature decided winter wasn't over yet...
a quiet day in the shop - time to continue with the painting...
going from a taupe/brown color to a soft green
although the pictures don't do the color justice...
I like the way things are turning out...
I used a darker gray/green for an accent on the door trim
much more to do...but I think I'm about half way done.

Prom
Just a few of the beauties I am making for Prom!
I love seeing all the fun dresses the girls have now days!
some of them are so sweet ♥
most of them are so sparkly!
and many of them are downright risque...!
all of them so different from the gowns we wore back in my day!
(never mind...it was a long time ago...)
