Just a Little More Red.....

I love our condo in December because our Santa Claus collection adds color to the space. We don't usually decorate with a red palette.....but the "zip" provided by the Santas provides some brightness on grey winter days. So when they go back to their boxes in early January the place looks a little dull.

But my friend, Sue, gave me a just-wait-for-it surprise when we met for lunch a few weeks ago. An amaryllis in a box. So I brought it home, followed the directions as best I could (I am not known for my green thumb) and waited.

Sue, Eileen and I had lunch on December 18th.....and here it is, loud and proud on January 10th! Happy to see just a little bit of red to brighten our space for this month too.
