crazy beautiful


The sunday market was a crazy beautiful assault on the floral senses. Yes, these were for real! A sea of peonies (just for Courtney), and pots of poppies, delphiniums, and lilacs. I did not need to be reminded that it is a two-week peony season to snap some up (even if they were a bit on the pricy side). I spent most of the weekend painting the apartment, so this riot of color was a welcome break from staring at white(ish) walls. More from the market tomorrow...let's just say I will be eating well this week.

And a huge, huge thank you to Anne for including me in her fantastic Boarding Pass series ~ what an honor!

  3. I got a bunch for $3.00. They were a little on the edge. I should have bought the budding ones.

    Can't wait to read Anne's post about you!
