Sunshine and a little flower


I saw a really beautiful quote in the newspaper yesterday from Hans Christian Anderson. It says:

 "Just living is not enough. One must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower."

 I love that. So I took time today to plant up this old toffee tin with pansies while feeling the sun on my back in the garden.

    That is so beautiful - both the flowers and sentiment.

      Yay, Ann! I was so pleased. I thought it would go to lovely Lauren because TV competitions always seem to prefer the youngster, but the best woman won after all (although they were all great and how they managed to work so fast under pressure I'll never know...)
