Oh, aren't they just sublime?WHAT a long time it's been since I've stopped to write! It's been a VERY busy month at Red Fragrance. But here I am... hello!
And it's Monday. Happy Monday! ... which could very well be a contradiction in terms. (It was a little bit for me this morning..)
I don't often suffer Monday-itis (starting bright and early with the delicious mayhem that is the flower market usually prevents it), but I hear it's dreadfully common. And this morning, when I woke up at 3.45, I knew I had been hit. After a very busy month, a battle with technology last night was the final straw - I should have seen it coming!
The markets were reliably bustling, which helped the situation a little. How could they not? But then I spied them: beautiful stems of phalaenopsis orchids, nestled in their fluffy packing, quietly calling my name. My all time favourite flower - what a perfect remedy.
I put them straight into a vase when I arrived at the shop, and they have been making me smile all morning.
My Monday-itis is long gone. I hope if you woke up feeling a bit grumpy about the week ahead, that you've found something to make you smile.
Happy Monday everyone!
