flowery goodness...

OK I'm the first to admit I don't know a lot about plants, which means I don't know a lot about flowers...but I know I like them! I popped into the local florist today, which always has some weird and exciting flowers that I've not seen before, and I picked up these. Apparently they are South African. I wish I could remember the name of them! Aren't they amazing? One of my favourite things to do is buy flowers on the weekend, it feels like a special treat for making it through the week!

sunshiney day...

Today was sunny. After so much greyness and constant drizzle over the last few months some sunshine is quite significant. There is nothing better than a freshly cleaned house drenched in afternoon sun. I love the way the sun filters through the bathroom window, it's one of my favourite little corners of the house. I even picked some flowers from the garden for my cute new vase. Sunshine and flowers. Double yay.

oh spring, where for art thou?

I am starting to think you have completely forgotton about little old Perth in your travels to spread those delicious spring aromas and warm-enough-to-go-outside-but-not-enough-to-get-burnt goodness across the southern hemisphere. I awoke yet again to the sound of rain on the roof this morning. I feel like I've been robbed of 20 days of my favourite season. Hmph. Oh well, at least some of the plants do seem to know what they should be doing regardless of the endless lousy weather as there is quite a bit flowering going on in the garden. Enjoy your Sunday, the best day of the week!
