Attention!

We are working on improvement of the functioning Flowers Ukraine. It possible to be some technical problems for a little time.
We'll avoid it as soon as possible!
Beforehand we bring our apologies for possible malfunctions in Flowers Ukraine's work.

Resipe - Pleasure in a Bowl


Materials:
- Flowers and Foliage - 3 to 4 stems of the following, orange spray roses, orange carnations, rosemary and lemon leaf, bells of Ireland (use your team colors)
- 10-inch glass/acrylic bowl
- 4 to 6-inch diameter bowl
- 1/2 brick floral foam
Floral clippers, knife and floral food/preservative.

Directions:
Step 1 - Soak the foam in water that has been treated with floral preservative.

Step 2 - Fill the small bowl with floral foam. The foam should come 1-inch above the rim of the bowl. The trick to arranging in a round container is to think of the face of a clock. Starting with the greenery, insert the hour and minute hands into the center of an imaginary clock (the center of the container). Cut the greens to approximately 5 to 6-inches in length. Arrange additional greenery at the quarter hours. Now fill in the other hour marks with more foliage. Add the flowers by following the same procedures as the greenery. Cut flowers slightly longer than the greens. Fill in obvious spaces with more flowers and foliage.

Step 3 - Now fill the large bowl half-full with popcorn. Then set the flower-filled bowl inside the half-filled bowl. Add more popcorn, filling the entire large bowl.

Neil Diamond - "You don't bring me flowers"

You don't bring me flowers
You don't sing me love songs
You hardly talk to me anymore
When you come thru the door
At the end of the day

I remember when
You couldn't wait to love me
Used to hate to leave me
Now after lovin' me late at night
When it's good for you
And you're feelin' alright
Well you just roll over
And turn out the light
And you don't bring me flowers anymore

It used to be so natural
To talk about forever
But "used to be's" don't count anymore
They just lay on the floor
'Til we sweep them away

And baby, I remember
All the things you taught me
I learned how to laugh
And I learned how to cry
Well I leared how to love
And I learned how to lie
Well you'd think I could learn
How to tell you goodbye
And yYou don't bring me flowers anymore

Well you'd think I could learn
how to tell you 'goodbye'
You don't say you need me
You don't sing me love songs
You don't bring me flowers anymore
