Quotation of the Week (8/2010)


When you have only two pennies left in the world,
buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other.

Stunningly clear photo.

I like the quote too. That's pretty much what I'd do metaphorically speaking.

Dan, it is an orchid. I got the plant in a flower pot 1½ years ago. Just recently, to my surprise, a new branch appeared with three buds on it which are now in full bloom.
