I visited one of my favorite wholesale floral distributers today and saw some nice little spring vignettes. All flowers are faux.

The only flowers I can flaunt today, at Tootsie’s , are bought blooms.  The winter is dragging on, so these bright reminders of summer, albeit summer in tropical climates, are so welcome. My dear husband gave these to me for Valentine’s Day. I love orchids (which seems to run in our family), and recall how in Bangkok, Thailand, we could purchase big bundles of orchids for a few dollars. Yellow tulips are so spring-like, and if they are double, so much the better! Now head on over to Tootsie’s and see what everyone else is flaunting today.

What do you do when you want to scale an icy mountain, and you live on the Prairies?   Why, you do this…. The sign says “alpine”…hmmm…. As they say, where there is a will, there is a way…. Winnipeg’s mountain….
