I was in yoga,
And Foo Fighters came on.

It wasn’t my favorite Foo Fighter song,
And Foo Fighters isn’t one of my top 5 favorite 90’s bands.

It made me so happy, it made me sad.

If I live a long time, I’m about halfway.
There is so much more I want to do.
So many more times I want to hear
Foo Fighters and go to yoga,
And follow an idea, a path.
Make, create and connect.
I am so excited about my farm and flowers,
And to be. Bees. Oh my god a new bird is peeping right outside right now.

“This is a call to all my past resignations”
Oh I’m here for it, not sure exactly what it means, but turn it up!
I want all the things and it’s spring after a hard winter,
and I’m going to enjoy every little bit.

Terrible, disgusting, deadly things are happening and more are coming.
And we will die.
Beautiful and ugly lines get erased, totally forgotten.

Ok so Top 5 90’s bands:
Smashing Pumpkins, Pearl Jam, Counting Crows, Blind Melon and Sublime.

What are your top five 90’s bands? Just right off the top of your head…

Photos from mid April last year by she’s the best!
So excited to hold all the flowers.

Hello beautiful people! I see you here on the socials and out in the world!

I see you Krystal, Carey, Kristen, Kristin, Christia, Hiliary, Theresa, Britt, Daisy, Sunny, Alex, Megan, Minneapolis. I see your smarts and hearts.

I see you Jen making soup and Amanda making posters, Bee making podcasts and others who are fighting the good right with love and joy, that is the secret sauce. The sauce is love might the only thing I actually know.

The republican yards signs have been coming down for months. The catholic family on our block, who has had them up since 2015 has taken them all down. No one who cares about people actually wants this. It’s ok to change your mind and retract your support, it’s not ok to see this is wrong and still do nothing. Call and continue to call your reps.

I was talking to my friend Christy yesterday. She is organizing observers at her kid’s school in Minneapolis. She wanted to tell me she’s good, she’s proud, she’s tired, she’s distracted, she’s appalled, she’s hopeful, she’s all the things all at once. She wanted to say thank you, and they can feel us rooting for them, they can feel the love:)

We are closed today in solidarity with the strike. I love a good buy nothing day. Sip, sigh.

Taking orders for Sunday and beyond.

Taking orders for Valentine’s Day, see the website, it’s gonna be super pretty!

And something totally new, Friday February 13th Valentine’s Eve, we are turning Corner Brew in Ypsi into The Love Factory-Valentines by You!

We will be there with a delicious flower bar for you to get your hands on stems and make your own bouquets, featuring our tulips. Along artists, poets, crafters all there to help you make your own personalized, original valentines. Poems, paintings, drawings, charms, teas, essential oils, Zines, collage, decorate a giant cookie, build a lovescape in a tiny teacup… that’s right! and more. We are so excited! Come to get all hands on and crafty, get some glue on your fingers, make it all special and personal. More info at weadoreflowers.com

Thank you and for their help in organizing this, wow what a joyful, sparkly bunch, so excited!

Have you walked by our place?

We look like someone's next level obsession, and you are right.

Colorful abundance kept in tidy rows. All the flowers you know and some you don't. A brimming hoophouse, a dahlia collection that could be behind a glass case, bean hyacinth pole climbing 20 ft in the air.

All this and-
"Oh your pumpkins"
"I like your pumpkins"
"Hey look at your pumpkins!"

It is laughable, so I laugh.

Maybe because the pumpkins are new. Probably because they are huge and perfect. But really it is because they have a little magic. Magic that I will be sharing with you if you'd like.

My friend, or more likely our friend, Deanna White gave them to me a week before she died in June. She was my flower friend and friend, knocking on my back door a couple times a week for years, exchanging flowers, ideas, baked goods and hugs.

She was generous. Had that real Christian twinkle in her eye. She woke up each day and asked herself "Who shall I love today and how shall I love them." And lots of days she picked me.

She gave me 5 seeds, our last plant exchange, only one came up. This one seed grew 14 pumpkins and counting, 3 were 40 pounders, 7 20 pounders, the vines covered 400 square feet, coming all the way to the street.

This seed was saved by Deanna from her pumpkins. Each year her family had a little competition on who could grow the tallest sunflower, or biggest cabbage and this was from the biggest pumpkin challenge.

We will be saving the seed, giving seeds out at Halloween, and at our events. The seed will be at the Seed Bank at the Ypsilanti Library.

Want some? I'll mail them.

My favorite part about massive perfect pumpkins growing next to my driveway and reaching the street is the people got excited about them, and I got to talk about Deanna. And we got to share memories of her and memories of loved ones. A little piece of her, a seed, a moment, to share.

Now who shall I love today and how shall I love them.

Updates!
Winter Tulip Subscriptions are now open- join us, become obsessed with me!
Winter Wreath Workshops will be on 11/30 and 12/7, open soon!
Subscriptions for 2026 open Dec 1st!

Beautiful summer, again, I think that is 3 in a row-well minus the smoke;)
I went swimming 12 times, yes I am signing autographs, someone give me an award or a bouy! tehe
I needed it.
To cool my hot head.Literally and figuratively.

It's a hard time to be an environmentalist,
Team Green knows what I mean.
Lots of other important issues have come screaming to the front.
Seems like it is knocking the air out of us, I feel that.
Thank you to everyone finding their voice in this torado.

We had a Flower Bar fundraiser for Gaza, we raised $900 for World Central Kitchen-yay!
Our group discussion was everything.
It felt so powerful to be in real life with others who can't believe a genocide is happening, that the US is funding, and so many are turning thier heads away from.
Vertex is thinking of having a regular meet up.It was so beautiful. Thank you!

I love that We Adore Flowers is more then flowers.
I am more proud of that than anything, well maybe my bridal bouquets come close;)
My/our little stand against plastic/fake/boring/calculated marketing oh and genocide.
All while adding a little beauty and lots of heart.

I do have a fire in my heart,I can't let go, turn away.
But it is you, and I actually mean you, my town, my people,
That fuels my fire.
I need your example of kindness, leadership, joy
Your light is everything
From my breaking and on fire heart and head to yours,
Lets kick this apathy in the balls. With love;)
And friendship and art and healing.

If you can do it, then maybe I can.

Last year we raised over $1200 for Gaza.

This year we are aiming for $2000+

Come, join us, put your face in gorgeous flowers and delicious coffee. And be surrounded by the sweetest humans. The types of folks who care for people they don't even know. Even when it isn't popular. Even when they are told it is complicated and they should shut up. They can see right and wrong as clear as Lake Superior water. They, maybe you, will be there. These sweet souls are even better than flowers and coffee. Come!

When we did this last time, the good vibes reached the ceiling. I felt we wanted to connect more. So this year we will make space for a group discussion. The focus is what actions are folks taking, what ways can we Care Bears can help further. For example who to write, who to applaud, how to talk to others, and how to protect your heart without withdrawing. Instead of spinning our sad wheels, what are folks doing to support Palestinians, what can we do? Yes!

To sign up go vertexcoffee.com/events
This is August 23rd, 3-5pm. Flower Bar time from 3-4pm, loose discussion 4-5pm. If you arrive during the discussion of course you can make your bouquet after.

If you can't make it, you can contribute anyway. If it feels good, be generous:)

Proceeds will be going to The World Central Kitchen who is on the front line feeding people.

Thank you Kara for space and beverages and leading this group discussion.

Thank you to my flower friend Kristen , who will be also bringing gorgeous blooms.

Thank you and for your input on planning this.

This feels so much better than crying in the car, alone. Again. Or pretending to be apathetic when I'm just not. Or giving my power away because I am too afraid to step up.

So grateful to you doers, so proud of us!

My love is a reflection of you, and I thank you.

Picture taken the big hearted Brit These are peonies, we will be bringing queen of summer, dahlias and her court.

I ran out Saturday to walk in the woods, one of the last snows for the year. I was excited to get out before it was mud again by mid day.
I was the first human to leave footprints in the snow at Leforage Woods but there were mice prints, bunnies hops, maybe a fox or probably a coyote’s, they were running, I ran a bit too:)
Seems like everyone is really ready for Spring.

Spring Goals-
To hear the first peep from the Spring Peepers, I know that is not really possible to know, but I want to go listen a lot.
To witness the courtship of a Timberdoodle. (Calling a Timberdoodle a Woodcock, is like calling a Tamarack a Larch, and a Linden Tree a Basswood, please join team way more fun)
Celebrate the first hummingbird I see with some yet to be determined new ritual
And to walk the Potawatomi Trail all 17 miles, slowly, let it take all beautiful day.

Spring Garden Chores Checklist this week-
Take down the Christmas Lights-ha you too?!
Clean up any beds where I have bulbs trying to come up
Clean up my hellebores
Cut back the ornamental grasses
Prune my bushes that bloom on new growth-you probably don’t need to, but I am looking for long and strong growth for my designs
Tame/train our honeysuckle and clematis up the trellis
Prune my blackberries-if you have other fruit this is the week

Hey, should we start a loose group of front yard gardeners? Or you know what would be fun, coordinated bike tour? Or at least a map of us where folks can plan their own tour. Just to share notes, celebrate our bold stand against boring conformity, our ecological offerings, and our play, our color, our fun.

We in Ypsi are pretty lucky to have a supportive community, crazy to me that gardening in your front yard isn’t allowed in some places.

I see you all out there and feel comradery. Lots front yard gardens here in Prospect Park, so many in Gault Village, I wish I knew you all!

Front yard gardens, we are a thing, we should have a thing.

We are planning to have our Ypsi Poetree coming soon...!

First two photos by the magical Britt

Gonna be gorgeous! Lots of warmth and growth coming!

1.5’’ of snow! A regular Tuesday snow on the West Side of the State and a Tuesday afternoon in Marquette. But here in Ypsi, it is the first time since I put up my Christmas lights up Dec 10th that there has really been any.

Last night I went outside to see.

Just the bittiest, sugar flakes, like beach sand, it’s glittertown out there folks:)

I went to look at my lights in the snow. I am proud of them. Not maybe in the way you think.

It was a hard year for lights, a late Thanksgiving, then it was cold. I love lights. There are notably fewer lights this year. And it is hard, you can’t do everything, and that is actually my point.

Being the face(a red face;) of my business, as someone who loves effort, quality work and excellence, it is easy to feel the increasing need to put a shinier and shinier foot forward, well on everything. It is hard to show up in my community with things that aren’t excellent-cookies, singing, my spelling, my outfit, my home decor, oh god my nails! Are people going to think I can’t make a banging out of this world bridal bouquet if I don’t manage my cuticles! Ha!

It’s a slippery slope and I’m not going down there.

I have my areas of excellence and I am sticking to them, like bridal bouquets.

These kinda sloppy stars are cute and all I could get done. I didn’t kill good with perfect, I did fine. My little offering of light, it’s good, I’m happy with that.

I’m a believer in Lagniappe. A New Orleans tradition that means “a little something special.”

I moved to NOLA at twenty years old.
Not in a Girls Gone Wild kind of way.
But in a WWOZ kind of way.
Tipitina tra la la la, sweet olive, live oak over old brick, gas lit streets, the Mississippi River,
for something real, for something sweet.
I do know what it means to miss New Orleans, it’s an honor to be haunted.

I was your lousy waitress at a lousy restaurant.
Please don’t ask to separate your check at the end,
it is still my stress dream.

My friend was a bartender at Brennan’s Restaurant.
We’d go out to eat with a crew,
To Dickie’s, Mr B’s, and Commander’s Palace and enjoy NOLA’s finest on a huge discount.
The service industry is family there.
Little somethings special would float over- fried oysters, a glass of port, creme brulee.
Little gifts, where the transaction is in smiles and cheer and simply good will.

Lagniappe, pronounced-Lan-yap
A small delight, the extra mile

And I have got one that is so cute.

For those signing up for Twelve Weeks of Tulips
I want to thank you for coming to our Winter Flower Show-for joining me in my obsession with these sparkling, gorgeous Opera Singers, sigh-
With this sweet thing we made of wood, glass and pressed flowers from our farm.
All natural materials, my kind of sweet.
It’s soo cute on the tree and in the window.

The humble umbel ornaments are also now available online.

We can even gift wrap it and send it directly to the receiver.

All about this at weadoreflowers.com

It was impossibly hard to live to New Orleans during the holidays,
January was gorgeous, December miserable.

It was going to freeze in Nola,
I stayed up half the night dumping buckets water on the concrete,
Trying to make ice.
It didn’t work.

I was just too far from my family.
And too far from my woods.
After three years, I moved back.

I don’t take it for granted now.
I have some skates this year, a sled.
I put lights up, the wood is stacked and we have a tree.
Grateful for my family. Flaws and balls and all.
Grateful for the snow and cold and the dark.
So we can gather in the comfort of warmth and light.

The excitement and pressure ticked up yesterday. No, nope, I’m not doing that this is year, not over doing it and getting in the way of my own enjoyment. I am applying the permaculture principle I learned from Jess Tack, called Shoot the Hostage.

I cut my charcuterie board shopping list(hell let’s call it snacks!) went with a cash birthday gift, and I don’t need a new sweater, I already have some I don’t wear;)

All I really need to do is choose a couple things and make those lovely. Not everything. And cultivate wellness, as best as I can.

It is hard to connect when your eye is twitching;) that’s a wink, not a twitch, ha!

To help with twitching and confusion of what we offer, I made a clear list.

We might not have everything, but what we do have will be lovely, you can count on it!
