Third one down, the big pink one. They are all so beautiful. If I wasn’t technically challenged I would use them all at the same time.

It is. I make cookies for a living, as I am sure you know. But is there anything better than the humble homemade shortbread, pimped with a little vanilla huh??
Oh yes!! Don’t care about dunking, but all my perfumista friends, Birgit etc drink various shades of green and white tea. And I want coffee! Very Neanderthal …….
I live near Salzburg, but next time you do a vanilla party in London I wanna be there. I never have less than about 15 litres of various vanillas on hand.
My gardening skills are close to non-existent. But every year I long for my six peony plants to bloom. They are my only flowers, and they somehow survive my neglect of them. I cut them and wallow in bouquets of pink scent through out the house. Mine won’t bloom until June, so thanks for the lovely pictures.
I used to have two enormous pink peony bushes in my old house, and experienced major problems with them flopping nearly to the ground, though every year I would try to stake them a little bit better. I hope yours are less wayward in that regard?
too much pink for ya?
Stunning. My new screensaver.
Love it!
Which one?

I didn’t know you did it for a living (though your name should have given me a hint).
I year to dunk some of those freshly baked mothers in some hot, steaming coffee
(for I have no manners in that regard: I LOVE dunked cookies)

good lord, i need to be in your kitchen!
Hahaha. Anytime. 😉
Incidentally, I am extraordinarily techno-challenged myself. Quite stunted mentally in that regard.
The first one reminds me of ginger sushi
Gari? Nah, too feathery. For me it’s Fantin Latour and Power, Corruption and Lies. His roses are curiously peonistical.
A gorgeous sentence, I must say.
Will have to check out the man’s pictures.
(sang New Order at karaoke last night, getting home at 7.30 this morning)
Ouch. Not sure I could ever do 7:30, but now at our advanced age? Inconceivable. Which song/album got the treatment?
Bizarre Love Triangle/True Faith/Regret, and I could have gone on longer…terrible, ageing hedonists….
Delightful blooms.
Beautiful!

I don’t do the gardening myself – that would be Duncan, but they do most definitely have a tendency to flop. Such beautiful flowers.
wow…….. beautiful.
I’ll tell them.
Gorgeous…and well captured!
Peonies are my favorite flower to look at. Such big, lush blooms!
