Did you know that you can buy something for a few dollars in the spice section of your grocery store to make your flower arranging more successful?

January Doldrums

Williams Sonoma

 

If your home is looking a little sad and empty with the Christmas decorations down and the cold and dreary days of January here, perhaps you need a little pick me up. 

Publix has roses on BOGO this week, so I decided to take advantage of this great deal. Buy one dozen for $12.99, get the second free. I got 4 dozen roses for $26.00! Aldi and Trader Joe's have great roses too.

The Olive Tree

Caspari Store in Charlottesville, Virginia

 

The Caspari store in Charlottesville, Virginia is one of my absolute favorites. If you are ever in Charlottesville, don't miss it. Charlottesville is also on my short list if I relocate. I love this olive tree inspiration. Olive trees, both real and faux, continue to be very popular. 

A Little Shopping

Collection Sheer Bra Top

I had my yearly physical yesterday and everything was perfecto and I have made it another year with no prescription medications in my entire life. Not one! I even lost 5 pounds. I celebrated buying lots of gorgeous roses at Publix (they are buy one dozen get another dozen free) and went on a bit of an online shopping spree at J.Crew. There is an additional 70% off lots of sale items with code SHOPSALE. I love J.Crew, especially their J.Crew Collection which is their high end line.
