A Victorian Posy: A Treasury of Verse and Prose Scented by Penhaligon's | Sheila Pickles

so-so

Beautiful matchings of artwork to the poem subjects. It would have been nice to label the art, though. The collection of poetry goes from Spring to Summer to Autumn to Winter with flowers as the subjects. I liked three of them: Another Spring by Christina Rossetti, Winter Violets by Edith Nesbit, and Flower Chorus by Ralph Waldo Emerson.

Edited to add: Solabees in Portland Oregon, they have an Instagram if you want to see more of their beautiful work!

Not book related...but my best friend just passed her licensure for therapy and I have picked her up these flowers from my favorite florist in my town.

The Language of Flowers | Vanessa Diffenbaugh

#WondrousWednesday

1) I love all flowers, but today‘s pick is lilacs as I wait for mine to bloom. It amazes me how quickly they grow from the tiniest bud to a stalk of lovely color and scent.
2) My kids are safe and secure, good friends and my snuggle pug, Pippin.

Breasts and Eggs | Mieko Kawakami

1. Forget-me-nots, primroses, gerbera, snowdrops

2. The cover of the German edition has flowers on the cover and reminds me of spring. The flowers, the colours - this cover feels like the essence of spring to me. 😊

Trashcanman What are you up to this weekend Samantha? 3w

Yuki_Onna @Trashcanman My plans have been crashed as I'm sick. Yesterday I had a high fever and could hardly walk. Today it's a bit better, luckily. The fever has gone.
How's your weekend so far? 3w

Trashcanman Oh no! I‘m so sorry to hear that. Do you have e someone to look after you? I hope you feel better soon. My weekend has been good overall. Mostly good. More good than bad. I hope that we can have some deeper when you‘re feeling better. Nothing that makes you uncomfortable. I just wanted to catch up. It‘s been years. 3w
