Our new hobby, flower arrangement, took a big step forward this week…We made some ornamental gardens! They looked pretty fine if you ask me.

It was an amazing 90 mins of total concentration from me and Dan. And, I should add, utter relaxation! Flower arranging really is enjoyable…I guess this is what happens when you turn 30…

I decided to dedicate my arrangement to Manchester, and so carved a challenging ‘m’ shaped path as the centerpiece to represent both a heart and the ‘m’ of our beloved home.

Thank you, the slightly misleadingly named, ‘Chocolate Flower Shop’ for, once again, sharing your flower arrangement skills with two totally clueless but very keen novices.
