I was scrolling though the Gram the other day (my social media of choice since I had to physically block FB on my phone so I wouldn’t just delete the app and use Safari to get at my people…I have a problem.), and I was really struck by a photo and its caption.

susana_starbuck of Little Flower Studios posted a snap of two delicious bouquets of fresh flowers – which she often does so you should follow her for a little extra beauty in your life. What was different this time is that she captioned the photo, “When I’m pregnant during Lent (which is like always) I have to get creative. This year I’m giving up fresh (and fake) flowers in the house. So obviously I had to stock up this weekend.”
How often does this gal (who also shares my love for hot lipsticks) have fresh flowers around that she can give them up for Lent? I want to have fresh flowers around so much that I need to give them up for Lent. What a beautiful life that would be!
If Susana’s life is anything like the gorgeous photos she takes, I want a little slice of that. I want me some fresh flowers.
Maybe you’re hopespecting some for Valentine’s Day. Or maybe instead of filling your house with mucho disorden, you can make it your new treat yoself gift. I like the latter.
I decided to treat my momma with some nice purples last week. She just got herself two new knees, and that warrants a little floral celebration.
While my mom is a huge flower lover, she was never much of a recipient this time of year. It’s not that my dad is a jerk (he’s totally the best dad ever), it’s just that my mom spent years working in a flower shop ON Valentine’s Day, so she wasn’t around to actually celebrate it herself. She worked for the sole purpose of sending my brother and I to private school. That’s it.
So, beauties for my mommy:
I feel like Leslie Knope right now loving on these two beautiful women, and that makes TWO Parks and Recs references in one post. I wouldn’t have it any other way.
So, add a little fresh to your home with FTD just because, or celebrate your favorite lady this Galentine’s Day (three).
Nice idea!
Absolutely gorgeous flowers for your beautiful mama!! Hope she mends fast! :)
Kochi,sits as a standout amongst the most mainstream slope station in Kerala and a prominent vacationer destination. This verdant portion of area remains ran with voyagers and occasion significant other all round the year. Arranged at an elevation of 5000-8000 ft above ocean level, Kochi was the midyear resort of the past British proprietors.
beautiful flowers and nice thought.
