Flowers.... oh flowers...

Here is wishing Sharon & Rekha from the Key Bunch a very happy anniversary. Say it with Flowers… is such a fabulous way to start another blogging year. Go on and join the carnival there!! The girls and I do not pluck flowers… we believe that any flower looks most beautiful when connected to its plant. However, on my Friday morning walks, when people trim their plants and the rest are binned… The fresh flowers normally come home with me.. I’m also linking this to Pink Saturday and dedicating these flowers to all those who lost something on 9/11. Words are not enough to take the pain away… So I’m saying a little prayer and I hope you are as well.. to guide & give enough strength to heal the wounds. This is my new inspiration – Lotus. I’m inspired by Padmaja. I’ll tell you why shortly….. (post coming up next week!!) But in the meanwhile, watch out for my ‘Lotus inspired living room’. It’s still in an early work in progress stage…. So if you’ve got any suggestions, either comment or email me on torresp27@hotmail.com
Also, dont forget to join my September Cozy Corners... *smiles*
