a green valentine











(It's climbing all over my apartment)

A sweet friend met via blogland -- I know I've gushed about her before but I just can't help it--I am so happy to see her beautiful photos or poetry and when she writes, I'm always so inspired by her loveliness. She sent me a wonderful package over the holidays, filled with beautiful thoughtful things, her own handmade earrings and a book I can't wait to use in Paris...and this little can...
I opened it in January, gave it a little water and took a picture of it each day. It's such a lovely gifty and sweet symbol of friendship, to nurture it and watch it grow and grow...Thank you Nadia...
