Marigolds, Cakes and Lily of the Valley

In the GrowBox café this afternoon where I met a good friend for a catch-up, there were troughs of bright marigolds.

We took our drinks outside and a young woman came by and offered us cakes. We asked why and happily accepted after hearing they were part of a photo shoot for a local bakery. They were delicious!

Here are the flowers for Kath, the dear friend lost too soon for whom I write this blog. . Kath loved France and we spent some happy times there with her and C. If we were together on May 1st she would give me a little bunch of Lily-of-the-Valley. If we weren’t, she would send me a card to celebrate La Fête du Muguet. You can read about its significance here.
