This weekend we had glorious spring weather, it almost felt like summer. And Saturday night we were having friends over for dinner. So I called upon one of my favorite florists Holly Flora to fill the house with beautiful flowers!
Dining room table centerpiece
Tulips in the hallway
Begonias for the living room cachepot
And these glorious purple hydrangeas for the kitchen

After a wonderful night of good conversation with our friends (one topic was the new book "Room" by Emma Donoghue -- it is riveting), I was excited to find this quote from novelist Henry Miller:
"Develop interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music -- the world is throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls, and interesting people. Forget yourself."
These are inspiring words to live by. Happy Spring!
Love those flowers!! Very inspiring of a spring frame of mind.
