". . . little shall I grace my cause

In speaking for myself. Yet, by your gracious patience,

I will a round unvarnish'd tale deliver . . ."

(William Shakespeare's Othello, I.iii.88-90)

Bunches of Blooms!

We have had a flower explosion! The roses on the left are my daughter's, received from her adoring parents Friday night after the musical. The arrangement on the right is actually a combination of two bouquets--one presented onstage at the conclusion of the concert that I played last Sunday and the other given by a young chorister at our last rehearsal. I ran out of vases and had to combine them last night when Trevor, my 16-year-old, presented me with the middle bunch, a dozen red roses (and some chocolate!) for Mother's Day.

Aren't they pretty?

Thank you, Causal Observer! Should I wish you a happy Mother's Day, too?

By the way, I've gathered from some of your comments on my posts that you and I seem to have some different ideas/points of view, but I appreciate the charitableness with which you approach those differences. I'm wondering: do I know you in real life? Or just here in cyberspace?

(If you prefer to remain anonymous, that's okay. I'm just curious.)

Oh dear me no! Sorry, I just happened upon this site a few weeks back while searching for some recipes from Grenada and ended up clicking all the way through. Apologies for not making that clear (the internet is a big neighborhood after all)! I appreciate your letting me be a part of your discussion though.
And no...no kids, not there yet- all in due time I suppose.

Ah, a fellow Grenada fan. Have you been there? Or are you planning to go?

No need to apologize. It's nice to make your acquaintance and you are welcome to drop by and comment any time.
