Today's Flowers: Mardi Gras Colors

Mardi Gras

The grocery store in the next town had exactly what the doctor and the decorator ordered for my daughter's Mardi Gras party last weekend--flowers in gold, green, and purple. The colors represent power (gold), faith (green), and justice (purple). These Anastasia mums were strong and beautiful.
