I do love the food shops at Pike's Market, but my FAVORITE thing there is the flower stalls! I have been known to take over a hundred flower photos in this two block area, but I tried to contain myself. Here are a few.
I browsed every vendor's booth to choose just the right combination for an enormous bouquet for our hostess, Sheena, for tomorrow's GTG. Here is the arrangement I came up with:

Hi Palma,
This entry about your trip to Seattle is so alive- You gave a real sense of "the happening" of the market and folklore which surrounds it. The various entries read like a mini travelogue. Your blog continues to be my favorite-I always check to see if you have posted a new entry.
A warm hello to you and Brad. BTW, did you get the brochure? Hope so. If not, do let me know.
Mary

Palma you did a such a great job of flower selection. I have never seen (let alone received) such a large bouquet!
The flowers were, and still are, beautiful. I think about you and Brad every time I walk through the front hall.

Palma ... This is one way I can enjoy the beauty of the flowers without having an asthma attack! LOL. What spectacular colors. I miss being able to have fresh flowers in the house. Lucky you.
