I like doing food as a focal point on my table. It is not like going out and buying flowers or candles which are expensive.

I take care of my flowers and my cats. And enjoy food. And that's living.

Flowers always make people better happier and more helpful they are sunshine food and medicine for the soul.

Children in a family are like flowers in a bouquet: there's always one determined to face in an opposite direction from the way the arranger desires.

God did not intend the human family to be wafted to heaven on flowery beds of ease.

My experience with both my parents is that grief has a lot of down sad things but I was also really emotionally raw in the first year after each of them passed. Flowers smelled more intensely my relationships were hotter and I was more willing to risk. I was going for it a lot more. I was 'unsober' and I wasn't playing by my rules.

True education flowers at the point when delight falls in love with responsibility.

Cauliflower is nothing but cabbage with a college education.

Much education today is monumentally ineffective. All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants.

I have made bouquets of pleats bouquets of flowers bouquets of ruffles bouquets of feathers. Often I design in mousseline held tightly around the waist and with something else going on all around.
