Floral Focus #FashionFriday

Moving to a completely and totally new place has a lot of benefits.  One of the simplest has also turned out to be my favorite.

Though I have been to Florida a few times throughout my life, I have no idea what to expect day to day and season to season.  I’m constantly surprised by the way the light streams into the house and how I can spot the moon and stars out the windows at different times.

Flower blooming seasons are completely different here than in Michigan.  Familiar favorites bloom at different times, other flowers I can’t begin to identify.  I spot something new and wonderful each time I take a walk.

I don’t make it to Winter Park every day as I don’t live there, but each of the handful of times I have been there, the park looks different.  The day these pictures were taken was my favorite so far.  The wisteria in the park is one of the prettiest things I have seen in my life.

I took lots of time to appreciate it as well as the other flowers blooming on a simple walk after grabbing some wine and lunch at Financier.  Sancerre, which the wonderful waitress told me was Ernest Hemmingway’s favorite wine.  How appropriate! It’s a delightful little café that you should visit if you are in the area.

Knowing there was a small chance of rain, I kept my eyes to the sky but took my chances.

And then the skies opened up.  It rained like I haven’t seen rain in a long time, certainly not up close and personal.

Luckily, we found a little alcove to hang out in with a warm coffee.  Just watching the rain until it passed was another simple pleasure for which I am thankful.

I am also thankful for all of you who have pre-ordered Cause of Death.  And if you haven’t done so yet, please please pre-order.  It means so much to me.

    Your pictures are stunning! I love all the flowers and now am so looking forward to spring and seeing the flowers here. Your outfit looks so great and springy like another flower. Your lunch looks so delicious and Sancerre is one of my favorite wines! What a great day even with the rain! Just perfect!

      I had never had sancerre before, so it was great to try it. Spring flowers are always the best!

Currently craving a giant slice of this Espresso V Currently craving a giant slice of this Espresso Vanilla Bean Tiramisu Cake. Then again, when am I not craving it??? This cake has all the flavors of tiramisu and is covered in a drippy glaze that packs a second kick of coffee. So that means it's totally acceptable to eat this for breakfast, right??? ☕😋
