"Flowers" with Olivier Guigni

"More than anything, I must have flowers
 always, always"
~Claude Monet~
Since ancient times, 
people have embraced 
the beauty and scent of flowers.
Poets, lovers and artists
have been inspired to create 
great works of art
that we have all come to know.
But you need not be rich or an artist
to enjoy the beauty of a flower.
You only have to stop and take notice
of the world around us.

"Tea Time" at Bernardaud

There are few hours in life more agreeable
than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea.
~ Henry James 1843 - 1916 

Tea time is a delightful and simple practice that one can integrate into one's everyday living. It will bring joy and a few moments of peace to you and your loved one.

Afternoon tea began in England in the 18th century. It is a light mean serve typically between 3 - 5 pm. Traditionally, this light meal comprised of sandwiches such as cucumber, ham and salmon, scones served with clotted cream, assortments of cakes and pastries, and of course tea.

Melody of Spring

 Spring is in the air!

The sun is shining and the sky is blue

spring air brings me the sweet fragrance of flowers
birds chirping the melody of spring whilst 
spring breeze steals kisses on my cheeks
I look up the sky,
I can feel the energy, and my spirits soar.
"Can words describe the fragrance of the very breath of spring?"
Neltje Blanchan

"Where flowers bloom so does hope."
Lady Bird Johnson

"April hath put a spirit of youth in everything."
William Shakespear

"Flowers are love's truest language"
Park Benjamin
