The Terence Cardinal Cooke Health Care Center,
whose work provides compassionate long-term care to the elderly and individuals living with chronic illnesses like AIDS, praised FlowerPower’s contributions:

“Your generosity ensures that our tradition continues, and your thoughtfulness truly makes a difference in the lives of those who need us most.”

Fire and ice (must be having an 80s moment?)

First thing I saw this morning was the orange of the sunrise on an icicle. Theses are results from a random web search for "fire and ice"...I was surprised that these roses did not show up, as they have the name "fire and ice" too!
