Beautiful White Begonia....& Magnificent Mini-Roses...


 Happy Sunday Everyone...

It has stopped raining...

Time to celebrate!!!

This lovely White Begonia plant...

In a lovely white pot...

With a few Pussy Willows thrown in...

Was...

A gift...

From my dear friend Devon...

She left it at my front door...

Last week...

When I was poorly...  

Love the hint of Pink...

behind...

a few of the petals..

And the soft pale green...

Of the "Flowers-to-be"... 









Love the bright red of a new leaf...

Hopefully...

I can keep her alive..

And blooming...

For a long time... 





My daughter brought me...

3 Miniature roses...

Yellow...

Coral...

Pink...

Aren't they sweet?

I swear...

Nothing...

But nothing...brightens your day...

Like Fresh Flowers... 








 My Stephanotis is still...

Putting out...

Dainty Yellow flowers...


And...

One of my Kalanchoes from last Summer...

Is sending up flower stalks!!


How exciting!!!

Will keep you posted on the Color...

Looks...kinda....peachy!
 







No editing on these photos...

What you see....is what you get!

Too darn lazy to go to Picasa and add my watermark...

It becomes a pretty tedious job...after a while! 

My boyfriend and I went out for Lunch...

       To Milestones...

           Had a delicious Burger...

               California style...

                         avacado and smokey bacon...DELISH!!!!

Relaxing now...

      Watching The Masters...such lush beautiful gardens...

           Some more crochet...almost finished Vivian's afghan...


On the menu tonight...

             Leftover chicken......YAY!!!!!!

Hope you are all having a great day...

          Still kinda chilly here....

             But no rain....GEESH!!!


                Cheers!  :o)

  1. Such pretty flowers! You are a lucky lady. I just noticed that you call your husband your "boyfriend." I think that's really sweet.

    1. Well Jennifer....he started out as my "boyfriend"...so I just continued to call him that!
      My kids get a kick out of it!

  2. Such gorgeous blooms from very thoughtful and loving people. Some improvement in the weather today ... had laundry outside to get that wonderful fresh air smell.
    Everywhere I turn there is another shelf or piece of furniture to be emptied and packed ... carpets going down on Wednesday ... I'll be so glad to get it all back to normal again. But on the plus side I've found lots of things to donate.

  3. What lovely flowers for your recovery! That was so sweet of both ladies! Love the pussy willows! Every year I say I'm going to plant a bush! Still haven't done that yet! I want a pussy willow wreath, too!

    I can hear The Masters in the next room! :)

  4. They are so easy to root...and then you just stick them in the ground...
    These ones may even get roots in the pot...so I will plant them...
    The Masters on here as well....

  10. Very pretty flowers Linda. That's great that your Kalanchoe is re-blooming. I'm glad you're on the mend. Your boyfriend's burger sounds really yummy although I'm not a big burger eater. I think it was the bacon and avacado that sounds relish! Enjoy the day. The sun is trying to peek out here and it's going up to +9! A heat wave!! :)
