poppies

shop_jan_26

(poppies, sweet pea, jasmine, lucedendron and ranunculus from this morning's delivery)

There is a film crew downstairs working on a film in our storefront, so we're all huddled upstairs in the office being as quiet as we can, sans heat. (The blower is too loud).

The show is about a woman who sets up a flower shop but the cops think it's a money laundering scheme. Exciting! I keep waiting for them to call me down for my cameo but they have not yet. I'm ready when you are!

Also, what if I told you Ryan Gosling is in it and is standing right below us...



No he's not.

Did I have you there for one second?

That's a real beauty- has such a still life painting quality to it.

When I had my flower shop, I always wished someone would come to me with money to launder, just so I could have beautiful material, and not care if it was profitable or not!!!!

Ahhh well...

That's a mean Gosling joke! But wouldn't it have been nice if he was?!

Loving the poppies. They're beauteous.

totally had me.

I think this is one of my favorite arrangements ever; I love the way the branches are so blowsy and loose at one end (and how nicely it balances those soft poppies), and those bright pops of orange ranunculus in the midst of all the soft pinky hues are really lively and exciting!

I think I need some poppies in my life.

You have the most interesting adventures--fabulous business, new farm, shop in a film...of course, I completely believed Ryan Gosling was downstairs, because it seemed completely plausible in your life!

Gorgeous arrangement, as always.

RYAN GOSLING!!! I was almost out the door and on my way before I scrolled down-saved myself some train fare. Gorgeous arrangement.

Nice try. Your Ryan Gosling is an imposter. The real Ryan Gosling is sitting in front of the fire with me rubbing my feet.
