Yesterday I bought 2 bunches of roses. My local flower farm sells them for $10 a bunch. I always split them up to make 3 or 4 smaller bunches, which I place around the place. They last me all week if I change the water every few days.
Whilst eating breakfast this morning I realised that they kind of co-ordinated their surrounds (which is unlike me). I had a chuckle because when I got home at dusk yesterday I randomly placed them about. Not thinking about it too much. Oh the power of a rose!
