Summer sunshine is upon us–why not spread some to a friend or loved one with this lovely Summertime Splash bouquet? Orange roses and alstroemeria, yellow lilies, pink asters, hot pink miniature gerberas and green button spray chrysanthemums are delivered to the lucky recipient in a clear glass cube vase.

It’s the perfect arrangement to say ‘I love you’, ‘Get Well’, ‘Thinking of You’, ‘Happy Birthday’ or just to let someone know how much sunshine they bring into your life.

Popsicles, yum!

Summertime’s here–hooray! That means BBQs, swimming pools, sand castles and sweet treats to cool you down! Did you know you can save money at the grocery store–or the ice cream truck–by making your own popsicles? Not only are they cheap treats, but they’re fun to make with the whole family.

Perform a quick internet search for ‘popsicle molds’ and you’ll find a slew of options. Choose from the tried and true Rocket Shape form as well as more modern options. Once you have your popsicle molds, you’re ready to start making your sweet treats! You can use fresh or concentrated juice, fresh fruit or yogurt. I usually stick with the old-school lemonade or OJ version, but you can whip up all kinds of creative combos: peaches and cream, triple berry, strawberry banana….you get the picture!

Check out this site for more details and recipes to make your own sweet treats!

Or, if you’re too busy to make your own popsicles, try this quick tip for your next get-together:

Simply throw fruit chunks and/or fresh mint leaves along with a splash of water into regular (or fun-shaped) ice cube trays. The elegant and tasty ice cubes will surely ‘fancy up’ a regular old glass of sparkling water!

Summer Smiles Flower Bouquet

A rose by any other name…

Did you know that June is National Rose Month? If you’re a gardener then check out these ideas about how to celebrate.

Did you know?

• Aphrodite gave the rose its name according to Greek mythology.

• The rose is native to the United States. The oldest fossilized imprint of the rose was left on a slate, Colorado. It was estimated to be over 35 million years old! Perhaps due to these facts it makes sense that it is the official floral emblem of the U.S.; President Ronald Reagan signed legislation back in 1987 that made the rose the United State’s National Floral Emblem.

• The rose is the state flower of Georgia, Iowa, New York, North Dakota, and the District of Columbia.

• The world’s oldest living rose is thought to be 1,000 years old! Today it still thrives on the wall of the Hildesheim Cathedral of Germany.

Roses are red, violets are blue

Roses have always been (and will always be) the traditional flower of love and romance. But did you know that every color and type has a different meaning?

• Red roses are the traditional symbol of love, romance and deep passion.

• Pink roses impart a softer, gentler message of love. They are used to express admiration and affection.

• Yellow roses evoke the sun. They symbolize friendship and loyalty.

• White roses embody innocence and are most often associated with weddings.

• Orange roses symbolize passion, fire and exciting energy.

• Lavender roses enchant; they most often symbolize enchantment, fascination and love at first site.

• Long stemmed roses convey deeper feelings then the traditional variety. For instance, sending a dozen long stemmed red roses implies your love runs very deep.

Want to send a strong message about how you feel? Send roses just because you love her—don’t wait for Valentine’s Day or her birthday! One dozen beautiful roses coupled with a romantic chocolate fondue will make for an absolutely amazing evening she won’t soon forget!
