If you have never considered pansies a flower to be used in a bouquet indoors, I beg you to reconsider. My friend Nancy, left a little bunch on my desk the other day to enjoy while she was off, and gosh were they pretty. I cut a collection on Saturday morning. Because I could. And since my pansies are so nice this year. What could be sweeter than such a simple pleasure?
My other tip for indoor flowers relates to peonies. Which of course you already know are perfect for indoors. But before you toss the week old arrangement, make sure you cut off all the buds that haven't opened and pot them in little vases. Because they will open. When they are ready. I am very patient when it comes to peonies.
Speaking of patience, that peach pie from Mimi, that I bought at the market on Saturday, and took to work and shared with my friends Monday ... was lip smacking good. Not too sweet. Lots of good peach flavor. Firm crust to contain all the goodness. Little bits of sugar on top of the crust. Just what I needed - another regular MUST buy at the market.
What's a girl to do? I can't wait to see what she brings this coming Saturday.
I will completely die if she has cherry.
