Spring Flowers
Yesterday, my husband and I went to the Phipps Conservatory to see their spring flower show. The traffic was insane and it took us quite some time to get there because of heavy construction and possibly a traffic accident (we will never know). Once there, we had so much fun seeing the flowers. I wish I could photograph the scents! I believe this year's spring show was better than last year's show.
We have a membership and go four or five times a year whenever they change the exhibits. I snapped so many photos and maybe I will paint some of them. I felt the creative urge to do so. Spring is filled with hopefulness and new beginnings, I like early spring but do not like late spring when the weather gets too hot. However, I don't have to think about hot weather right now, the forecast is saying snow next week, I hope it is incorrect.
Afterwards, we went out for lunch at a ramen noodle restaurant. It was so good and I love the noodles! I have yet to come across a recipe that duplicates what I eat at the restaurant. They must add love to the recipe.
What a fun outing, Karen! I think your inspiration will be so fun! I am eager to see what you paint!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds and looks like such a lovely day out! I, too, am looking forward to seeing what you paint.
ReplyDeleteLovely flowers and a delicious lunch sound like a successful outing!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are breathtaking, Karen. I have a cousin here locally who visits this same conservatory and some of her photos are amazing as well. Just lovely.
ReplyDeleteAnd you are probably right about the noodles...I'm sure it's the love they put into it. xx
Oh my goodness, the flowers are so pretty.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, it sounds like you had a good day out.
