"Where better to care for the soul than in the details of our daily lives?....The soul has an absolute, unforgiving need for regular excursions into enchantment. It requires them like the body needs food and the mind needs thought... An enchanted world is one that speaks to the soul, to the mysterious depths of the heart and imagination where we find value, love and union with the world around us. As mystics of many religions have taught, that sense of rapturous union can give a sense of fulfillment that makes life purposeful and vibrant." ~ Thomas Moore.

    Oh, these are so lovely! And your right... store bought roses, while beautiful, are not always fragrant. What a bonus! :)

    Thank you for joining in and adding your lovely post to Fresh-Cut Friday! :)

      I used to be able to buy 8 dozen roses each week! for $10.00 per dozen, and it was an amazing thing in the house. Now I'm lucky if I can get a bunch a week. These scented ones make me want them all the time. I checked wal mart today for them and their selection was not good. I can always cut some greens :D

    Oh, I bet they do smell wonderful. My knockout roses are still blooming. I take a moment each day to smell them. Your roses look beautiful in your window. Such a pretty shade of peach.

      Thanks, they did smell amazing, so nice to have a real fragrance emittimg from flowers! They looked nice in the window, I agree.
      Guess what I saw today in the store staring at me all piled up in boxes in the middle of the aisle right by the register? Nutella! I bought one. When I have a curious moment I'm going to try it. Made of hazelnuts and a ton of sugars....but it should be useful for a few things....lol

    These are indeed magically beautiful, dear friend...oh, and the scent...ethereal, yes?? :))
    Skimming the comments, I see that you purchased your first jar of Nutella??!!! Talk about tasting heaven in your mouth!! Ok, that is just my humble opinion, but please...let me know what you thought of it!! (Try dipping a strawberry into Nutella...whoa!)
    On to the newest post...
    Hugs to you, dear Lady..
