things wendi taught me

i have never been much for nice cutlery. a knifes, a knifes, a knife. i'm not preparing any fancy sushi or prepping my own fillets. i do, however, appreciate keeping the things i have in nice condition-especially now that i don't allow myself the cash-o-lah to buy anything new.

in comes twtm: don't put good cutlery in the dishwasher. apparently this ruins them....ya know, rusting and such.

i bet the same goes for swords.

things wendi taught me

i've never been a big fan of lilies. i think they smell horrendous, but they ARE gorgeous. so, occasionally, i suffer through the stink to have them in my apartment.
as luck would have it, we also often get lilies in our weekly arrangement from the shop that delivers to us at the office, thus allowing wendi to teach me another tidbit.

as it turns out, if you pull the 'pollens' off their stems from the open lilies it sends a plant message to the other flowers that it's time to open....thus, a more gorgeous, and less stinky arrangement.

lovely.
