Flower of the Month Club

For our anniversary, Patrick got me Flower of the Month Club! Here was his logic:

The Third Anniversary is traditionally leather, but I just got TWO new purses for Christmas, so leather was kinda out . . .

And, the Third Anniversary's "Modern" gift is Crystal or Glass, but we got so many beautiful crystal goblets, vases, bowls, etc. for the wedding that we really don't need any more . . .

But, flowers go in vases . . . that was the leap . . . and I am always coming home from the grocery store with whatever flowers are on sale for $2.99 (they last the longest anyway) and I'd asked for Flower of the Month Club for Christmas, and no one got it . . .

So here are the January flowers. It's not a great picture, but they were pretty cool -
