Visiting the Flower Mart

Gentle Friends, continuing our Thanksgiving Eve........ after we left the Mall we headed to the SF Flower Mart.  I've talked about it here in other Posts, but it is a lovely place and so much to see......

..... there is just tons of Christmas greenery everywhere including box wood, magnolia, all sorts of different pine, cedar, eucalyptus..... you name it and it can be found here......

..... there were lots of lovely wreaths, catering to all kinds of different tastes..... 



.... we were after flowers and came away with some really nice ones.....

.... but we'll be back to pick up some poinsettias and garland and maybe a wreath or two next weekend!!

Here's my annual snap of our Thanksgiving gathering, we sat down to dinner around 3 pm......   Turkey, dressing, sweet potato souffle, squash casserole, green bean casserole (a request), cranberry sauce, biscuits..... followed by Dot's Pumpkin Pie, Banana cream pie and Chocolate Mousse (another request).  It was a really lovely meal and a super afternoon!!

Take care,

  2. Great post with the flower mart and your table looks beautiful. I would love to spend a few hours at the flower mart as well as Lupicia. Sounds like a fun day to me!

  3. The flower mart looks wonderful. I would have a hard time choosing an arrangement. Your table looks very inviting. I love the plates on the table and on the wall. Your guests looks like they are having a good time. On a side note, I've ordered some of your White Christmas tea from Lupicia and I'm going to try it hot! I may wish I had ordered more....said they had a limited supply.

  8. That flower market brings back memories of the flower stalls in the markets in Mexico. I always loved looking at all the selections.
