While on a drive recently, we stopped by the roadside to pick a few bundles of this plant. Keeping a watchful eye for snakes, I cut enough stems of baby's breath to fill up the entire trunk of the car. The flowers are now home, but tiny blossoms have fallen from stem and are sprinkled in the car. Since it was Rylan's car, he has a comment or two about that fact. He says that it seems like baby's breath should smell good, but it doesn't. Instead it rather smells like puppy breath --- which only smells good when holding a tiny pup!

I remember my mom stopping on the way home from vacation in the Okanagan to pick a big bouqet of baby's breath. Such wonderful filler for arrangements she always said.
ReplyDeleteIt still is.
Loved the pictures of your cabin time too.
