TODAY'S FLOWERS ~ Flowers on my Table

Please scroll down for Brenda's Photochallenge,
Thankful Friday, Skywatch etc.

'Cecile Brunner' strongly scented tiny
rosebuds gracing a cloth embroidered
four generations ago, around 1850.



White Madonna Lily and pink Orientals.



A wealth of roses bunched up together



Tree Paeonia, backed by Rhododendron and lilac



A mixed bunch, just this and that...

    Lovely treasures, Arija. Not only the beautiful flowers, but the fabulous family cloth! I love the gold trimmed blue glass, too.

    Arija, thank you for your sweet comment on my ice cream 'not' post on Friday. My family are always up for some laughs. I love that about my sweet family.

    I never comment this late but I fell asleep early and now I am awake. sigh.

    I love your flowers you posted. especially the first photo with the fabulous table cloth. Fresh flowers are the perfect accent. Thank you for such a lovely post.

    Hugs...Jeanne

    Lovely flowers Arija! The problem here is that we haven't got any flowers in the garden now. I'll try and find flowers in Egypt.

    What beautiful flowers. Flowers can brighten anyone's day. You just brightened mine. We had a freeze last night that finished off our flowers.

    Dear Arija I can feel with you when your are loosing precious trees which have been nurtured for so many years. A man from St. George in western Queensland worked once for us. He had what we called the St.George Philosophy. When we ranted about the weather, we had many very dry years on the farm, he would say:" Don't despair every day is a day closer to the next rain." It only works when you are born in western Queensland!
    The flower bouquets are marvellous. The embroidered tablecloth is very precious. How many hours has sombody embroidered and how many thoughts have ben stiched into it. Herzlichst T.
