After three months of on and off rain, which is not at all normal for Nice (usually the late spring-early summer rains only last about a month), the sun has finally started to heat up the city. As I’d hoped, the technician was able to coax my refrigerator back into behaving this morning.

I was talking to a friend in the states and she’s been thinking of sending her mom a surprise on her birthday two weeks from now. Since she is too far away from home, it would be impossible for her to actually buy a gift and send it by freight. I suggested Island Rose, a florist in the Philippines, to do the job for her. Not only do they deliver high quality long stemmed roses, they actually have the best variety of flowers and arrangements that I’m sure mom will love. The best part is, rosesEating in New York
New York City is a fun place for anyone who's a fan of vegan food and also has a decent eat-out budget. One list for options in the Lower East Side alone scrolls and scrolls.

By the end of a Saturday, I'd tasted from eight eating establishments, plus a street pretzel.

Cassandra Wilson will release her new Cd next week, and it's an occasion worth celebrating. The talented Ms. Wilson's last few releases have moved her further and further from what we normally consider "jazz singing", particularly the material on her Thunderbird CD. Produced by T-Bone Burnett and featuring drum loops, that album had a rootsy feel that recalled moments in her break-through release Blue Light Til Dawn, but never really moved me the way other releases had. I'm pleased to report DIY Flowers — Real, Fake… Or Both?
From the start, I planned to save funds by DIYing our wedding flowers. Martha Stewart’s DVDs, which I checked out from our local library, made it look amazingly easy. But I had nightmares about trying to wire together bouquets on the busy day before the wedding. So, we went with silk flowers for our bouquets and bouts, purchased months in advance from Save-on-Crafts. And I was quite impressed — they were high quality at excellent prices. These orchid boutonnieres were only $1.44 each. (ThVictoria Dock

I first heard music, a single song, from Orillia Opry last year when Sean put up "I Lied" over at StG. I had no idea who he/she/they was (even after listening to the song I wasn't sure whether the singer was a man or woman, different listens found me leaning different ways), but I knew this was something my ears liked a whole lot (StG is probably the best site in the world to find those kind of songs). Time passed, I found other music, and Orillia Opry faded away, relegated to a one song band Unusual Tabletop Accessories for Father’s Day or a Wedding Gift
