In A Vase On Monday: #52

Posted on December 28, 2015 by johnvic8

  This is the last Monday in 2015 and my last vase of the year. I happen to be in San Diego with my daughter’s family for the holidays, so I am challenged to present a vase this week. I gathered a few sprigs of lavender blooms from her front garden and plopped them in a convenient beer mug

I continue to be grateful to Cathy at http://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com/ for her invitation to participate in this weekly meme. Last January I made a resolution to offer a vase every week in 2015. I am delighted to report that this is #52!!!!!  I think it may be the first time in my life I have kept a New Year’s resolution. 

It is a challenge to do this on my iPhone, but this one is for you, Cathy. Happy New Year from my Arranger and me.

    You’re in San Diego. We’re in LA. We both seem drawn to the Pacific for Christmas.

    Well done, managing 52 vases this year, I think only Cathy has achieved as many. Some of my lavender is flowering too so you may see a similar vase from me soon. The beer mug makes a perfect compliment to your flowers.
