I see Pirl written all over this Beautiful Lily.

It is so big, bold and beautiful! LOL

I had to look up your avatar, Mr. Kin. Salmiakki? Salty liquorice? Is it really good? My Mom loved liquorice. Wikipedia does not make it sound too good. LOL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salty_liquorice

Ditto Kin and Kell!

Salmiakki is my favorite licorice! Most people think its the most disgusting taste they have ever tasted. All that much more for me...LOL

Sounds YUM Kin! LOL

I will be trying some the next time I hit the Asian market here!

LOL...if you ever go to IKEA it's sold there as Swedish salty fish. My advice is wait to try them next to a sink. Here is the ice cream which is good too. View the first one on YouTube.

@Kin - your first post - SAME! i went to the BOTD on the home page, so i didn't see her name until after i clicked it, but i already knew!

beautiful!

It certainly is! I must apologize to Pirl, The avatars are distracting as evident this thread. Sorry...

Oh I think they are so interesting, very telling about a person. Who knew you loved Swedish salty fish candy and Swedish salty fish ice cream, Kin. LOL I can't imagine how it tastes. And I will die not knowing.

Where is Pirl? Her photo is so perfect, she needs to take a bow.

Beautiful as always Pirl!
