Happy Valentines Day!

Via email
Looked Good On Line
It's the thought that counts, of course.
The thought is that he misses his sweetie back in Minnesota while he toils in sunny California. Kathleen's favorite flower is the fragrant, fragile Gardenia, a beautiful plant would remind her of how special she is to him.
Through the magic and convenience of on-line ordering and guaranteed delivery the deal was done. ProFlowers to the rescue, right?
The potted Gardenia originated in a bitter cold Illinois and arrived on her doorstep, as promised, yesterday afternoon -- when the temperatures were a balmy 30 degrees in Shakopee.
By this morning, above is what became of his Valentine! -- definitely not like the one on the right that originated the thought.
Ah, but we're philosophical. All flowers are temporary, it is just a matter of how much time, they all fade and die.
Our Love is Forever.
Happy Valentines Day everyone. Have a good thought.

Postscript: The nice lady at ProFlowers promised to deliver a replacement. Kathleen chose a hardier plant to arrive Wednesday.
