Weddings and Berries!

Hello Wednesday 11th june! :)

Today I am knee deep in beautiful flowers due to a wedding i'm doing flowers for tomorrow. :) This is my happy place and I really, really did I mention really? I don't want to come out of it.....

I should mention i'm a florist and although it's my passion and I love it it can be a little sporadic. Wedding season is fabulous but winter is not so.... therefore I also have a 'real' job. Booooo to being a grown up! I just wish I could spend everyday creating beautiful designs but sadly flowers are an expensive hobby.  I'll share a few pics of todays wedding on another post.

Anyway... whilst pottering outside, from seeds, we have fruit in our garden. REAL fruit. Ok it's not ripe and quite possibly will be enjoyed by a wandering slug (I don't suppose slugs wonder do they) slithering slug, a opportunist snail or even an incredibly lucky naughty bunny that 'never' escapes his cage. BUT it's actually grown. :) I have never had green fingers in the garden - hence the interest in 'cut' flowers but this is a proud moment! ;) What has really impressed me is the red currants on the bush that I had no idea was actually a bush and not a weed, let alone producing berries. I may just look and not taste those as knowing my luck they'll be the kind from the movie The Blue Lagoon..... If you haven't seen it it's worth a watch.

On a happier note here is the evidence! Super chuffed :)
