    1. Thanks Debbie. Yes, you got me exactly... it was lovely roaming around picking little pieces of cheer! I keep a water bowl under where the heater blows warm air - its supposed to help put a bit of moisture in the air. I figured those native violets I have in their may also perfume a little bit :D)
      Thanks too about my pic, that's so sweet of you to say - it was taken near our little bungalow by the sea at Phu Quoc, a little island just off Vietnam... shortly to post about it. Hugs and happy week to you :D) xx

    1. Don't they make the sweetest little bunch - the buds of geraniums always remind me of tiny roses! Hope it clear up soon but, then again, the rain is beaut for garden ... the cold - ah well, not too much longer ;D) xx

  16. I love your "little" blogpost with the so-charming pretties in their lovely bowl. There is much more here than one sees in the first look - the matching colourful flowery tablecloth and the vision of you walking slowly round your sunny warm garden carefully choosing pretty flowers for the precious engraved glass bowl, then managing to get this wonderful balanced photo of all. I wonder if you stood on a chair to do that?

    1. Hi Sheila and thankyou :D) I'm really glad you enjoyed it, those sweet little flowers just had to be featured didn't they! No, no chair-standing, just held the phone up above and guessed - lol - um .... some 20 pics later!! but then, I think we're all prolific pic-takers aren't we.
      Lovely thoughts from you, many thanks. Hugs xx
