Indeed!! But for a little while I had a flower delivery subscription (over covid, when all rules were out the window) and my god did it make it grin every time a bouquet appeared!)

That sounds lovely. My personal definition of not-broke is can buy flowers for no reason without guilt. Don't do it often, but still..,

I justified it as supporting a local business... until she made me feel like a burden.

However, I still LOVE having fresh flowers in the house, but I also live with an utterly stupid animal who poses anything not for him as a personal challenge.
