Bouquet

Originally uploaded by crimmles

I didn’t realize the various gardenia bushes around the house would be so full of blooms now. They are, and that makes me happy, because gardenias are one of my favorite flowers. Plus, I adore the scent; it might scream old lady to some, but to me it whispers classical sweetness. Tomato, tomahto.

Now my mantel is happy with its new bouquet, the scent is lightly wafting through the living room, and they look nice in the bud vase Brian received at his friend’s wedding last year. I just wish I had a bedside table to put another bouquet beside, because drifting to sleep to the scent of gardenias sounds heavenly right now.
