"My fake plants died because I did not pretend to water them."
~Author Unknown~
(Not so long ago a friend of mine told me that when her parents visited, her Dad watered all her silk plants. My friend did not have much success with real ones, but she had some very realistic and pretty 'fake' flowers which I always admired. Apparently so did her Dad.)
How funny! I hope he didn't ruin them!
ReplyDeleteI think they were okay, at least they looked okay the last time I saw them :)
DeleteSome fake flowers are beautiful. Have a wonderful day, Denise.
ReplyDeleteThey certainly are, I agree. thanks Angie, you have a wonderful day also :)
DeleteI love your friends story - and those silk flowers must have been exceptional.
ReplyDeleteThanks Sue and they truly were/are the prettiest I have ever seen, and a little less dust on them now ;)
DeleteLOL, that's too funny.
ReplyDeleteYes Ann, I laughed out loud when she told me. She was very funny in the retelling.
DeleteThat's a hoot!!! And the quote is me!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Anni, I think I can relate too :)
DeleteCute story, love the flower image. Take care, enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThank you Eileen, I should have said the picture came from Pixabay. I thought I had ID'd it but forgot. Must remember to do that soon.
DeleteHe must be some great dad, my dad would not even water real plants or even notice they were there. lovely edit today
ReplyDeleteBless his cotton socks, he wasn't there but for a couple of days or so, but he thought they looked a bit 'dry', LOL! Got up early as he usually does, and thought he would help his daughter out. A great dad indeed :)
DeleteFunny
ReplyDeleteThank you Christine :)
DeleteThat is priceless! My husband tried to light a battery operated candle with a lighter and we all had a great laugh, glad he laughed, too.
ReplyDeleteNow that's funny too Ellen, bless his cotton socks as well :) Being able to laugh at ourselves at times is a blessing in itself.
DeleteHaha I'm always looking for those fake flowers that look real! My Grandmother always used to mix fake flowers with real greenery, they always looked fantastic.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely weekend

They certainly did look real, they took me by surprise when she first got them. What a great idea your grandmother had. Thank you Wren and you have a lovely weekend too :) x
DeleteThat is funny.
