I was invited for lunch today and while I was at the grocery store in Saissac this morning one village over I saw the new very small flower shop next door, I had been there previously, so I thought excellent I will buy some flowers for my host.
While I was in the shop waiting for the nice young lady to make up the bouquet, she is really creative, makes beautiful arrangements and sings while she works, there were two extended phone orders. Being nosey I inquired about large orders from a community of small villages in the dead of winter.
Oh yes she replied business is good in the winter, its the very cold weather, some old people just don’t make it.
You find your laughs where you can
Alas now too old to die young,
