Wedding Bells

Congratulations Wills & Kate!

Thank-you again to the lovely people at the Ridgetown Horticultural Society for having me last night! My hands weren't shaking nearly as much this time as the last time I did a demonstration! I'm proud to be a member of a group that is doing so much good for our community. Last spring when I became involved in some small clean-up projects around town, I was surprised at the sense of pride and feeling of ownership I had after taking part. I've had a little hiatus now from contributing, but certainly plan to more now that I am more settled into this new gig!

Pictured above is the Strawberry Chocolate Mint Wreath I made at the meeting last night. I'm excited to be hosting my first workshop tonight to make this wreath with a great group of gals. I think we're going to have a lot of fun! Happy Easter and enjoy your long weekend everyone!

This little Easter Take-Away is coming with me tonight to the Ridgetown Horticultural Society meeting. I was the lucky winner at the March meeting of a shamrock (or oxalis if I really want to be a proper horti!) so I thought I would bring a little something tonight to contribute to the monthly draw. I'm also priveledged to be speaking at tonight's meeting and doing a floral demonstration. I know most of the lovely people at the meeting and yet my guts twist every time I think of getting up in front everyone. Wish me luck!...maybe I should bring my oxalis with me instead of this little goody!
