women love gifts and flowers but do men?



So men are from Mars and women from Venus. We know that men and women are different but yet, it is easy to forget this point. An interesting reason for the difference between men and women is that, men are made from 'dust' and women from the man's rib. And according to an anointed preacher, Pastor Bernard Blessing, Adam was asleep when God created Eve so that explained why men could never understand women and vice versa.

Don't believe it? Go shopping with your other half for bathroom fixtures or discount furniture. While the woman may be keen to search for quality stuff like Hansgrohe, the man may be looking out for bargain corner. Women appreciate gifts and flowers for special occasions but the men would think these things can be a waste of money. By and large, it's hard to get men and women to agree on opinions, likes and dislikes, preferences, priorities and lifestyle issues. But whatever it is, they are created to complement one another and as iron sharpens iron, they are placed together for the good of each other and the society.

old fashioned way of sending flowers



Whenever I'm stuck with what to buy for someone on birthdays, condolences, anniversaries and celebrations, the old fashioned way of sending a flower arrangement still work best. It's hard to explain how flowers can warm hearts and bring smiles even to a hard pressed and stern person but it is still an effective way to touch hearts today. It may be just a plain bouquet of roses or a grand bouquet of mixed blooms, online ordering has made it easy and convenient for people to send their appreciation and love. Beyond Blossoms even offer reward points with every purchase and order from their online shop.

the sweetness of rose petals



I've been a mall rat today. This time, I didn't ask for it but since DH was attending a seminar next to a mall, I decided to spend some time with Clayton at the mall.

This mall is very well designed with a good balance of fashion forward and designer branded stores. The management has focused much on a lifestyle concept and what captivates me is the use of plants, fresh flowers in and around the mall. When I look at those beautiful fresh rose petals scattered on the bowls at the customer service reception, it reminds me of the sweetness of good living and the sense of wellbeing. As a matter of fact, roses have so many uses and even the petals can brighten a wedding or reflect luxury in any occasion. It's no wonder that the online flower store, Fifty Flowers actually sell various kinds of rose petals for the wedding couples who like them scattered on the reception or by the flower girl.

i love surprises

I love surprises, even if the surprise is just being presented with a stalk of flower. Actually, I don't remember the last time I received any flowers... my husband always says that I don't need any flowers cos I already had a flower shop in Singapore - Duh, what an excuse!

Yes, I did helped to set up a flower shop in 2000 but that was history. It is always nice and comforting being near those fresh blooms. The internet has made it so easy to send flowers to show our appreciation and love to friends, family or business associates.



Personally, I prefer to send unique and exotic blooms such as an orchid plant, a pot of lavender or maybe just a big bouquet of lilies. It is also nice to send a gift basket during festive occasions like Christmas, birthdays or a get well wish. The flower and gift ideas at Dot Flowers present lots of choices for anyone wanting to send someone a surprise.

Send an orchid on Mother's Day!

I haven't met any woman who doesn' t like receiving flowers. Sending flowers has always been a symbol of gratitude, love, friendship, comfort, apology and cheer. Don't ask me why but I always enjoy being around flowers. They give me a sense of calmness, peace and wellness. One of my favourite activities is to visit the nursery and I always end up buying too much flowers. It just makes me feel good!



This Mother' Day, if you are confused with the many gift options out there, sending a lovely orchid or plant from flowershop.com is unique and exotic. This family-owned online store has lots of offer - gourmet gift baskets, flower arrangements, fruit baskets or even luxury gifts. With a secure transaction and guaranteed service, this is a good stop to pick a nice order of Mother's Day flowers.
