The roses have been begging me to take pictures of them since they began to bloom. But, my camera has still not been fixed, so I have refrained myself. Today I could not stand it anymore, I grabbed my phone and took some pictures, in spite of the quality.
I love roses, they have such a strong fragrance! I will sometimes pick one and sniff it until it doesn't smell anymore. (I may or may not be addicted ;)
But hey, my middle name is Rose... so I am allowed right!?
These words come from a song called "You Alone" by The Sisters.
They have been on my heart today.
And that was a few random snippets from my day.
Hope you all had a good one!

I heard about that Tornado on the CBC! I'm so glad no one was hurt. They are pretty neat to watch, in a scary sort of way. xD
At a historical tour of King's Landing a few years ago, an interpreter told me that the colonists would pick rose petals into a jar, and cover them with cornstarch. The starch would absorb the volitile oils from the fresh petals, and the powder would smell like roses all winter long. They used it as a perfume and deoderant. I thought that was awesome.
My parents don't have any rose bushes in their yard right now, but whenever my husband and I have a yard, rosebushes are at the top of the garden planting list. :P I love rosehip tea, so it's not even impractical, right? And does everything need to be practical anyway?
Love your hair, btw. :)
