When I was 55, I decided to embrace the things I love and hold precious and dear, regardless of anyone else's thoughts and opinion. I am a visual folk artist who loves flowers - my own flowers, grown and/or painted by me.
I love good, hearty, exotic foods, and I love to prepare them myself. I love the secret garden situated in my backyard, regardless of how overgrown and wild it gets. No longer able to afford a vacation, this will have to be it for the time being. In the winter months, I still enjoy it.
Anyway, here I am sharing my art, favorite recipes, cocktails, gardening tips, and just my usual vents and bantering. After all, I'm old enough to say whatever the heck I want to now ...
My cousin, Stormy sent me an amazing email today. It contained the above pictures, and the very simple message:
Who, But God, Could Create This?
THE PARROT FLOWER
This is a flower from Thailand . It is also a protected species and not allowed to be exported. This will be the only way we will be able to view this flower.
THE VERY RARE PARROT FLOWER.

A simple garden meal in the shade. No, it's not my backyard, but it looks identical to the one I grew up with at our home in Queens. Looking for an original pic of it to post soon!
