Four!

I just learned that an amaryllis stem can have either three or four flowers based on the size of the bulb. And most bulbs produce two stems. I can see now that my first stem is going to have four blooms! I was tempted to just sit and watch it all day....but I had a little chore list...including getting ready for a family dinner tonight celebrating Nate's birthday. I have a son that is going to be 39 years old! How did that happen?

I think this first one will be fully open tomorrow! 

And a quick report on what's on my puzzle table....I hope you don't mind.

I did this small wooden peacock puzzle....and am enjoying the burst of color while I  finish sorting pieces into my boxes for the next one. 

And speaking of puzzles....I got wonderful surprise in the mail today all the way from England. This was a sample puzzle Philippa had made of one of her table arrangements...but never pursued ordering more. So I think that means it's one of a kind. 

She sent this to me as a thank you for my support over the years. It brought tears of joy.

And what a fun it's going to be!

But I already have one sorted...so it will have to wait.
