Happy Thursday, sweets! Please excuse my photo heavy post today. I'm in complete peony heaven this week. I returned from vacation to find pale pink peonies at the market that I pass on the way to work. I always take the same route every day so that I can see the gorgeous selection of blooms. Even in the dead of winter when the selection isn't that great it instantly brightens my mood. It's such a wonderful way to start the day!

And of course I had to purchase them as soon as I saw them. They're my absolute favorite flower and I've been waiting nearly a year to see them again.

The beautiful arrangement intoxicated me the entire day and I was so eager to get to work the next morning to see them. Well much to my delight, on my stroll to the office I passed by the market and found an even more gorgeous selection of colors, deeper pinks and burgundy! I was in complete heaven and just had to snatch up a few more bunches to add to the gorgeous arrangement awaiting at the office. I can't stop staring at it. It's breathtaking!

I have some in my apartment now too and I can't wait for my next stroll tomorrow morning. What colors will they have next? Orange, red, white? This may get a little out of hand.... :)

Oh and today is the day that I am over guest posting at Julip MADE about my 5 essentials for the perfect weekend. Stop by and stay a while to check out Julie's amazing blog.

Have a wonderful day! xoxo
