My life is a pocketful of rainbows.

So, here I am...
***This blog was Established 2005***
And I am slowly reestablishing it.

I love English Lit! I have a fascination with puns, satire and tropes. I relish sharing the latest logic puzzle I've found. I advocate for education reform. I read Spanish much more fluently than I speak it. I know a lot of German. I dabble in SEVERAL languages .... including writing, history and knowledge of cultures. I am very interested in urban farming and self-sufficiency. Huge Douglas Adams, Roger Zelazny and Piers Anthony fan. I like reading Stephen King/Richard Bachman. I could spend hours with Terry Brooks and Shannara. T.S. Garp and I would get along famously. Avid Armchair Traveler ... especially Italy and Mongolia. Miicroadventures rock! I homeroast green coffee beans ... my fave are those from Chiapas, Mexico. I try new teas and those from Scotland make me smile. Friends and family are AWESOME!

I hope that something made you smile today!.

(May 22, 2006 ... four of six arrangements.)



Tips:
-----Buy an inexpensive, often sort-of-ugly bouquet, from the supermarket floral store...they all have them.
-----I always keep miscellaneous items like ribbon & glass jars on hand.
-----I combine fake with real.
-----I used to buy vases on extreme clearance...usually 50 cents or less ... they'd probably be a little over a dollar now. The glass jars are usually from groceries. I've a few vases that belonged to my mother.
-----I cut up flowers, real and fake, to make them my own. So much less commercial.
-----I recycle bits of bouquet that are still salvageable from one arrangement to the next.

Having flowers in one's home doesn't have to be expensive! #LittleThings
