Rose Month Day 24: Lady Bug 🐞

There’s a mysterious man who grows the most beautiful roses in Provence, or so they tell me. He’s impossible to get an appointment with, at least in my failed attempts. I had all but given up on getting roses for #RoseMonth from Roseraie de Chateaubois until my friends @maisonmoga (who run one of my favorite wine & cheese shops) messaged they had a bouquet to offer me from a man in Le Thor. I screamed, they had to be HIS roses! Turns out they are, and my are they beautiful. Such an incredible gift for something I longed to see.

But the gifts did not end there- a little stowaway came with the roses just as pretty as can be, like the rose herself.

Thank you @maisonmoga for these incredible roses! More tomorrow and until the last petal falls 🥀
