Backstory

This may look like flower arrangement, but it’s not. It’s really the top of a single floral stalk in Prince and Flo’s amazing garden. And again, I don’t know what kind of flower it is because I’ve never seen its like before.

Backstory

This was taken when Suna introduced me to her parents. Poppy Prince and Flo had such a lovely garden! I could (and did) spend hours just admiring the plants they were able to grow there, including this unnamed lovely. I don’t know what most of them were because they don’t grow in Central Texas. Not much does.

Backstory

Of course Suna took this picture, but how else could I get into my own photo blog?

To say “thanks” for painting the room over the garage, Suna secretly ordered a Tiffany-style pole lamp with a shade done in complementary colors. When I first saw it, I had to try it on in honor of my friend Matt. Suna tells me her dad also had a designated lamp shade.

I’m not sure if I’m supposed to be a wizard in a conical hat or a colorful tin man. I guess you get to choose.
