Happy Valentines to me!

I was not about to go out and purchase flowers for myself for Valentines. Nor, was I going to fight the hoards of men, carrying fugly over sized stuffed teddy bears and cheap half limp balloon bouquets, just to have some fresh flowers. Looking out my window to the backyard I am surrounded by beautiful camellia bushes. I decided to make an arrangement with them in one of my favorite milk glass containers. I will sadly miss these beauties when I am forced to move to my next destination in life, the dessert of Arizona. Next years post will have to be some sort of "succulent bouquet" I guess. Isn't that an oxymoron?
