  4. Here we go again! Flower season. I'm sure I said this about eight times last summer, but I am such a fan of ranunculus (ranunculi? Ranunculae?) LOVE them.

    Wishing you much joy from this spring season. I hear record highs have hit the East Coast. Enjoy!!

  5. Dear Gigi, What a splendid pink Ranunculus and what a kind and thoughtful gift for this Easter time. I think that the contrast of the pink on the splendid blue suitcase [could it be a hat box?] is perfection itself [and such an imaginative way of picturing the flowers].

    Thank you so much for leaving a comment on my recent posting to which I have replied.

  21. Ah Gigi - tomorrow I resume my rounds in the Blog realm. I have been sadly remiss in my visits and feel a bit wilted because of it. Your husband is a true Beau! I think I love Ranunculus (Ranoncules in French), almost as much as peonies... Happy Easter to you too- and watch out for those sneaky bunnies ;-)
