Wax (not plastic) flowers

Silly impulse purchase at Stop & Shop for a lush-looking $4 bouquet of fuchsia wax flowers, which I discovered had shed all their blossoms by checkout time, and then littered themselves all over the kitchen, including the sink drain.


No matter. The blossoms lived quite happily, face up into several bowls of water for much longer than the bouquet itself, in this stolen Denny's carafe (it's a remnant from Josh's youth, I know...stealing is wrong).
