    Flowers on Friday: Orchid Pot


    You might have caught this week's flowers on Friday during our office organization post. But if you missed it this will all be new to you, if you caught it, just pretend this is all new to you . . . c'mon do it!
    So like I said we have a totally new, never seen before bouquet! ;)

    I LOVE the green orchid pot (from Home Depot), but when our orchid died, or lived but refused to bloom again . . . grrrr. I was left with a beautiful orchid pot and no orchid :(
    So when I received my bi-weekly flowers from the world's best husband, no I'm not sucking up for a trip to Vegas I don't know what you are talking about . . . just because some friends are going to Vegas next month and asked us to come along and Lee said we couldn't and then said maybe we could . . . that has nothing to do with me declaring he's the best husband in the world and letting you all know how great I think he is and how I'd be lost without him . . . especially in Vegas :)
    Anyway,
    I Love green and white! LOVE IT! (I also love Vegas :)
    I had to figure out a way to use a holey orchid pot as a vase . . . oh the many uses for mason jars.

    I popped a little mason jar inside and voila a orchid pot bouquet!!

      I just bought a new orchid plant the other day....I hope it doesn't die, or live but refuse to bloom again.

      And I hope you have a fun trip to Vegas ;-)

      LOL at your "world's best husband"... I always do that sort of thing! But seriously, if you get a fresh bouquet, every two weeks, I think that makes for a pretty awesome guy!

      C'mon, Lee!!! Don't you think she deserves it? Make reservations at Nob Hill Tavern at the MGM Grand while you're at it ;-)

      We just came from Vegas last month. While there, we did a Mystery Adventure. It's something different to do in Vegas and was seriously tons of fun! Here is their website, check it out. :) I hope you get to go.

      My experience with orchids has been that they bloom once a year. :(
