Floral nostalgia

 Good morning, dear Blogger friends. Earlier this week one of my Weigh-Less members arrived at our meeting and presented me with a bouquet of orange gladioli. 

Back home I placed them in a jar of water and displayed them in my kitchen area.  And took a photo...

The gladioli made a vibrant splash of color in my display

When I messaged the member, expressing my gratitude for her thoughtfulness, I mentioned to her that the flowers were the exact shade of my wedding bouquet, 52 years ago!  This, in turn, got me reaching up on a cupboard shelf to fetch down my wedding album. 


HERES WISHING YOU ALL A GREAT SUNDAY!
