Runnunculas!


Yet another flower that sounds like a Harry Potter spell. Can you imagine waving and pointing a wand while shouting "Runnuncula!"?

Anyway, Runnunculas are one of my favorite types of flowers. Naturally, when I saw them at Trader Jose's, I snatched them up and ran... to the cashier.

I used to hate flowers in vases because I thought, "What's the point? They're just going to die!" Then I realized that they'll die in their natural habitats as well. I also realized that having fresh flowers in one's room is very nice. They are little reminders that the world (or parts of it) is quite beautiful.

I've attached some pictures (from my lovely little cell phone) of the runnunculas I bought.

  1. While passing through the kitchen today, I had the urge to take a picture of these for *my* blog. Lovely post.
