What is a trustworthy online florist where I can order wedding flowers through?
I just need a guaranteed delivery. Maybe one where I can create my own bouquets?
1-800-flowers is a very reliable one

My sis is supposed to have a baby (her first) in the next couple of days. She wants me to be at the hospital for the grand occasion, however i cant really do that as i live 500mi away. The rest of my family is planning to go to the hospital, so i feel bad that im not going to go. But after all i’m planning to drive down that way for thanksgiving and i dont want to drive 500mi there and back twice in the same month.
Anyways do you think i should send her flowers, or something of that sort. Or should I just bring her some when i visit for thanksgiving. Also are live flowers even a good idea with a new born in the house. I guess what i am i asking is – is there anything i can do to show her i still care since im not going to the hospital with the rest of my family.
It’d be a good idea to send something to show you’re thinking about them and you wish you could be there. Some flower places will do newborn arrangements that include teddy bears and flowers. I’d suggest getting one of those along with a good new baby card. Your sister will miss having you there but she’ll appreciate the gesture and the fact that you’re thinkign about her!
I know a couple who had a wedding planned, they (or rather the bride) had done all the arrangements, sent out invitations and all the normal wedding stuff. The bride was even doing the flowers herself and made a beautiful set to go on the tables for the big day.
One day the groom cancelled the wedding two weeks prior to the occasion leaving the people invited in limbo as well as obviousley devastating the bride. Seeing as their has been a lot of money gone into the wedding from one particular side, can the groom be sued for any reason for cancelling the wedding?
The bride can sue the groom for money, probably half the money (depending what they had planned as to who was paying) that was already put into the wedding…… Like for down payments, flowers, cake etc….. She may even be able to get some type of emotional damage maybe

I’ve been wanting a tortoise for almost a year now, and I’m doing lots of research, planning a lot, telling my parents, and trying to provide it with the best care possible. But I can’t provide it with a varied diet. Now I’m on the brink of giving up tortoise keeping forever. Here’s what I saw http://redfoottortoise.com/redfoot_tortoise_diet.htm
Romaine lettuce
Red and green leaf lettuce
Endive
Escarole
Chicory
Radicchio
Turnip greens
Mustard greens
Kale
Collards
Spring Mix (mixed salad greens)
cabbage (on occasion)
VEGETABLES
Yellow squash
Zucchini
Winter squash
Pumpkin
Carrots (on occasion)
Green Beans (on occasion)
FRUIT
Papaya
Mangos
Apples (be sure there are no seeds)
Strawberries
Blackberries
Cactus fruit
Tomatoes
OTHER GOOD CHOICES
Some other favorites of my tortoises that are available:
Hibiscus (flowers and leaves)
Opuntia cactus pads
Hosta
Sedum
Mulberry leaves
Hen and Chicks
Ice Plants
Prickly pear flowers, fruit and pads (burn the spines off)
Dandelion
Plantain (not the banana type fruit….the weed plantago major)
Mallow (flowers and leaves)
Henbit
Rose (flowers and leaves….make sure no systemic pesticides were used)
Chrysanthemum flowers
Cornflowers Plagiobothrys ssp
Forsythia (flowers and leaves)
Dayflower Commelina diffusa (flowers and leaves)
Californian Poppy escholzia
I can only provide romaine, red and green leaf lettuce, endive, radicchio, kale, collards, spring mix, cabbage, zucchini, carrots, pumpkin, green beans, papaya, mango, apple, strawberries, blackberries, tomato, hosta, mulberry leaves on occasion, dandelion, and rose. It’s not a varied diet and I can’t provide the more important plants.
I live in Toronto and is there an area which has these plants? I don’t want you to say I don’t need all of these. I need lots of these. At least give me a place to buy all the basic foods and at least half of the other favourite foods.
Ah… that is the list of possible plants, they do not need every plant every day, or even every week.
For my Red-foots, here is what I do when they are indoors, based on info from several trusted breeders and authors:
Buy 2 heads of different greens, at least one of them will be endive, escarole, arugula (rocket), dandelion leaves, turnip greems or collard greens. The other head will be something else from your list of greens usually. I feed them one of the greens every day or so, misting the food well. (Next week, I’ll use two different greens.)
Once a week, I add some fruits, or some veggies with seeds- tropical fruit (not banana), melon, squash, bell pepper, apple, pineapple, dark plums, etc. I have a salad bar at my local store, so I often just get a selection there. I also feed whole mushrooms every week.
Once a month or so, I toss in some meat protein- preferably worms or pinkies, but also cooked chicken, hard boiled eggs, or even low-calorie cat kibble (well-soaked).
I sprinkle a pinch of calcium powder on one meal a week, and I sprinkle some cut up rabbit hay or ground up hay cubes on the food a couple times a week for more fiber.
Either feed very small meals, or skip days so your guys grow SLOWLY.
From your list of what you can provide, you are doing OK- it IS a veried diet. Go light on: plain lettuces and spring mix, carrots, beans, blackberries, and tomato. You are not missing a lot of ‘important’ plants’.
Remember- these guys live in places with very limited access to healthy food (most of the plants around them are not safe to eat) and they are experts at living on very little.
Come on, dude- you are supposed to eat a varied diet as well and you don’t eat that much stuff!

Not sure I want to get flowers, because I’m not meeting her at her apartment, so she’d have to carry them around all day
You can get her an inexpensive bracelet – maybe silver, for $20 – $40. That way she can wear it while you’re out.
Women love to get jewelry, and always remember who gave it to them.
It used to produce really lovely white flowers, about 5-10 at a time, and now they are all green. They aren’t withered, all the foliage looks good, and I haven’t done anything different that I am aware.
I keep the plant indoors, in a well lit room, though it is not in a window. I am in TX with less than perfect air conditioning, it gets hot in here at times. I try to water once a week.
I transplanted it into a bigger pot about 2 months ago, but the change in color of the blooms didn’t happen till a few weeks after this. About 2 weeks before I noticed the color change, I cut a couple flowers off the plant for a bouquet.
Is there anything I should do to tend this plant so it stays healthy? Can I get the pretty white flowers back?
Please help, this was given to my family on the occasion of my mom’s funeral in December. It has done fine since then, so I was presuming it had a nice long life. Since I still have grief issues, this would be kind of a hard plant to lose.
Thanks
The flowers are trying to go to seed, but since it is inside they were probably not pollinated and won’t produce seeds. Cut all of the spent flowers off to for new flowers. When a plant goes to seed, it doesn’t need to produce more flowers, because it thinks its procreation job is done. have fun

I am invited at my fiance’s aunt’s for Christmas dinner. She is a very classy lady and has sent us flowers and/or gifts in many occasions. I will be going there from another city. She lives in another city 3 hours from mine. What should I take with me? My grandmother suggested I buy a cake from a nice bakery from her city and take it with me. Is that ok?
I was thinking I could bake some cookies and take them with me. If I do, can I take a bottle of perfume for her?
Should the gift on a day like this be edible so it can be enjoyed by all her guests rather than only herself? There will be roughly 12 people from my fiance’s family there.
Please share your opinions and experience. Thanks!
That sounds like you’re taking a good gift. Or just take them a bottle of wine. I always do that whenever someone invites me over to their house for dinner. I get my sister Yellowtail Shiraz.
Ever since I married things have been diff, I stress with the arrival of any holiday or occasion because I know that fights or misunderstanding with husband will happen. My first mothers day was the worst…I was expecting my husband to be lovable, flowers, kisses, I don’t know something special but all I got after asking "where are my roses"….was, you are not my mother…….and every holiday is the same thing…..he just wants to spend time with his family and all…..but all my family is here too. The only thing I look forward all year is my son’s birthday party….I plan it all year long to get over my depression that has been lingering for about 4 years now and can’t get rid of it. When I ask him to help with that issue all he say’s is…..it’s in your head….I just walk away to avoid a fight or allowing him to hurt me further……. how can I look forward to things again with out stressing, I used to plan and be excited on the holidays because of the family…..but know I hate them……is my depression getting worse without me noticing because every night when my husband comes home from the office I even get an upset stomach. Please give me a few tips to be able to survive this at least one day at a time or one holiday at a time. Thanks
Honestly your husband appears to be selfish, self-absorbed, and frankly creepy.
If a man loves you, he’s going to try and bend over backwards to make you happy. He should be doing whatever it is that you need to feel better not only about yourself, but your marriage.
From everything you’ve written, your marriage appears to be a one way street.
If you are finding yourself in this predicament because he can’t be good to you during the holidays that are meaningful to you, and if he can’t spend time with your family too; then there’s something wrong with him.
Selfishness comes to mind first. I could be wrong there.
The depression you’re going through appears to be your feeling unloved, disrespected and either ignored, taken advantage of or taken for granted.
If you want to feel better not only as a mom, but as a woman and as a wife, then you’re going to have to confront your husband about his behavior towards you. If he can’t change his behavior and start showing you some respect, love, affection and consideration then perhaps you two should not be married.
I hate to say this but if it keeps going like this you’re either going to be tempted to have an affair, or you’re just going to end up divorcing him.
Now there could be other factors in play here. Maybe he thinks you’re using him. Maybe. But there’s more to this on his side of the coin and so the two of you need to work it out.
You can try marriage counseling and see where that takes the two of you. But it seems to me he’s not being open to you, and you’re trying to be open to him and he’s shutting you out.
