I set up a facebook event for June 21, so on June 21, please post a picture of yourselves with your flowers to the IVWS Facebook Page to celebrate Clarissa Day.  (I know, I know, it’s a Thursday this year, but June 21 sounded like a good date to remember, and you can buy the flowers yourself on Wed if you wish to keep to the text!)

The link to the facebook site is above, or you can search for IVWS in the facebook search screen.
 
Best,
Madelyn

Really, no one's going to make a DallowDay joke? (;
 
I look forward to an afternoon of contemplation/anxiety (wait...that's not anything new). Flowers will have to do.
