Roses!!

I really wanted to add some flowers to my kitchen. I don't like real flowers because they are either cut and thus on a rapid path to dying, or I forget to water them and kill them myself. When I got home from work, I started making little roses with assorted red papers that I had laying around. Timmy suggested that we go on a walk with the dog during a lull in the rain, and on the walk I found a nice little stick with lots of twigs and branches sticking off. Since I was holding this stick, Navi wanted it. I kept picking up other sticks and feigning interest in them, but Navi wanted the stick I intended to turn into a rose bush. I didn't let her have it, and told her that it was mine. We got tangled up in the leash a few times because I'd switch the stick from my left to right hand, the leash would be in front of me, and she'd loop around behind me. Then I wouldn't learn from the first time, and do it again. When we got back from our walk, we took a detour to Target to pick up some glue, picked some pizza up on the way home, and started watching Jakob the Liar. I've already seen that movie, so I made roses and started my rosebush while watching! I can't get a good photo of the whole thing because it is night, but here is a smaller photo of one or two roses on the bush! I hope to find a few more sticks to complete the whole effect, and even make a bird sitting in a birds nest. We'll see how far I take this; I'm pretty pleased with what I've got so far!
