Thanks, Nancy! You'll love Spin Art! The fantasy Streps are some of my favorites, but the colors in this one are just amazing! Hopefully Cherry Pie will put up another bloom stalk soon so we can see some non-scrunched flowers.

I have discovered that Orchids are not at all as difficult as I always thought they were. Very similar to Gessie care, really. The pot of the orange-flowered one is only about 1.25 inches across. Very tiny!

And that song...I've been singing it since I took the picture. LOL We're such goofballs around here - we call one of our dogs "Moose" (her name is really Rain) because of her enormous ears. So we sing that song to her and instead of saying
"I see a little silhouetto of a man
Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango"
we say "Scare a Moose" as we tickle her sides. LOL She loves it and gets all riled up to play. Here's a picture of her and her enormous ears - 4 inches top to bottom! LOL Wish I had this in color...
