[dropcap]Happy[/dropcap] Mardi Gras (on Saturday the 4th) Sydneysiders and family and friends (and visitors alike). Hope you had a happy/joyful and fun/safe weekend/celebration, filled with much love, inspiration and enlightenment. We barely left the house and humbly/modestly celebrated the day with good music/movies, food and drinks indoors (mainly because of the bad weather/heavy rain atm). It was a pretty low key event for us but hey, that’s what we did.
Autumn has arrived and it’s been an unusually/extremely wet week on the east coast of NSW. Our neck of the woods has been marked with constant showers, spells of heavy/thunderous rain, and the occasional glimpse of clear sky. We spent the majority of the week indoors, but when the rain paused for a short while, I managed to sneak outside to gather some local native coastal banksia for a floral arrangement. I hope you like it. Have a safe and fabulous week ahead everyone/all. Lots of love. smile

We celebrated early – Lundi Gras? – with two of our neighbors and a steaming pot of étouffée, and some Cajun music in the background.
Your arrangement is beautiful – I have never seen Banksia before and love its sculptural form. Happy day to you!

Hi David, thanks for your comment. That sounds like a great way to celebrate. I just Googled ‘étouffée’ and it looks delicious! Thanks for your kind words – I look forward to painting the banksias one day. Best wishes.
