Nosegay
My fabulous brother Howard and his sweet and beautiful wife Vanessa sent Mama a delicious pound cake and this lovely nosegay for her birthday. I didn't take a photo of the cake--we shared it and Mama finished it off last night, complete with our favorite lactose-free vanilla ice cream. The cake and nosegay come from Nonnie Waller’s Traditional Southern. I think this is the third cake they've sent to her, so when we saw the return address, we got excited! This was the second one with a nosegay--the other one arrived inside a gorgeous padded hatbox. I think it looks nice in that vase we already had, so I set it on the kitchen window sill and took these photos Sunday morning.
Gorgeous flowers. I'm sad we missed the pound cake though.
ReplyDeletegorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGosh that top photo is stunning.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers, I bet the cake was great.
ReplyDeleteThese are simply gorgeous. Really eye popping colours.
ReplyDeleteI like the second photo best. The blue complements the flowers and the window adds place to the photo ... Your description of the cake make me hungry.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. Happy Birthday Mama!!
ReplyDeleteYour close up really brings out the colors and beauty of the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThe colors are beautiful, very nice
ReplyDeleteThe flowers look lovely, but I really like the vase. The liquid inside the vase looks a little bubbly?
