Look ! Look ! My "Delft Blue " Hyacinth bulbs are beginning to push up their flower buds !
A lovely surprise for the second Sunday in Advent . Especially as I,m feeling a bit poorly this morning and couldn't get to church ....which I,m sad about ...as we are putting out the lovely Nativity set , Christmas tree and all the decorations in the church today .
Anyway , I know that the Advent Candle Wreath is o.k as I popped in the other day to refresh it...goodness it's such a worry keeping it alive and looking nice through the weeks of Advent !
I,m collecting the special white flowers for the Christmas Day service , from the florist in Helston , the day before Christmas Eve .
Next Sunday is Gaudete Sunday - Gaudete - latin for rejoice or joy .
.....and I think that , by tradition , we are supposed to put some pink flowers into the arrangement , which will be nice ..I have some small roses still flowering out in my garden that if the weather is kind enough , that I would like to use .
We haven't had snow here , but it has been very windy .
I,m thinking of you all out there in the Wintery weather ..take care and keep warm .
