August and January
We asked some friends if they’d like to join us at a local farm to pick flowers. Our invitation was two-fold. Pick flowers together in August. And on a clear, sunny January day, come over to our house with their flowers (all nicely dried by then) for an afternoon of flower arranging accompanied by gingerbread and hot tea or maybe a pot of soup and some crusty bread. At the last minute, three of them couldn’t come. But those of us who were able to go had a perfectly lovely time at Butternut Farm.
The day was a bright and sunny one, with temperatures in the high 70s and a brisk breeze blowing. Perfect weather for being outdoors!
We can hardly wait for our January fun!
