If I was good at this whole thing we would probably be talking about the flower story I have in Brides this month. (And how I totaled my car on the way to the shoot.) Or the classes I'm planning to teach in my new space. (And how I didn't return a single work email for 6 days straight last week.) Or the bouquet I made on set yesterday for a magazine cover. (And how I was forced to wash my hair with cat shampoo that morning because I forgot to go to Rite Aid the night before.)
We could also talk about my visit to Portland a few weeks back. (And the hike that made me question my life's location.) Or maybe my mom, since it was mother's day? (In the meantime, go here and marvel all over again.) Or I could use copious exclamation points telling you that tomorrow I'm headed to Elmwood for the first time this year. (I need to rent a car.) ( ! )
But right now, let's practice non-verbal communication. Look into my eyes and all of that, because I don't have much else to say.
Wonderful post with the most beautiful photos to go with it. Sorry about the totaled car, but enjoy your trip to Elmwood :-)
ReplyDeleteYou are Supergirl! Love the flowers, as always. So happy for you and all your success. I love your thoughts that follow your wonderful pictures. Thanks for sharing...I love it!

Cat shampoo??? Omg. HILARIOUS!
ReplyDeleteI've used horse shampoo, if that tells you anything about the state of my life in general (although lately I've been of the not washing it sort because ugh) I think we're all in good company!
ReplyDeleteClasses! Ahh! Exiting!
<3
You've had quite the time lately! It all sounds like a beautiful life though...full of dreams.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the other day that we haven't heard about Elmwood in a long time. I love your stories and photos of your visits there...enjoy yourself! I still wish I had an Elmwood in my life. :)

Sounds like some Elmwood time would be just the thing for you just now! Have fun:)
ReplyDeleteThese flowers are beautiful
ReplyDeleteahh the humble brag.
ReplyDeleteShit, girl's gotta business to promote!
DeleteMove to Portland (we're talking about Oregon's Portland, right?)! Or at least, the vicinity. I'm not a big city girl, but I sure do ♥ the Pacific Northwest. If you relocate here, I'll be sure to keep your flower shop in business and your classes well-populated.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and photography.
ReplyDeleteI do love this post, beautiful flowers too! :-)
ReplyDeleteLoved reading your post, beautiful photograph, Ilaria

You're doing great.
ReplyDeleteCat shampoo? :p
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bouquet!
Gorgeous flowers, as always and I love the video of your mom. You are so lucky to have that. Glad you visited Portland, where I live. It's a beautiful city when the sun is shining, like it is right now.
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting amid the chaos and giving us all a treat. All the stuff we feel the need to catch up on all too often immobilizes us. totally understandable! insanely jealous that you are headed to NH. Have a wonderful, peaceful time. And safe travels!!
ReplyDeletePerfection.
ReplyDeleteWell if the things you have in mind are similar to the pictures you offer us here, they're beautiful ...* I can see deep happiness covered by a thin snow of painfully pleasurable melancholy.. Thank you for these images*
ReplyDeleteBelieve me - you're good at this..and thank you for not saying that you're "swooning" or "smitten".
ReplyDeleteYour photos (and the subjects) are so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI always look forward to the next post.
Can you tell me what camera and lens you are using?
Thanks,
Jessica
Non-verbal communication works well with me. I know it's kind of a cliche but your pictures really DO say more than thousand words. I guess life isn't that bad after all, even though the car crashed and washing your hair with cat shampoo?
