She gave you the credit for getting her involved in 'vintage'. She also said she loved your work and that your photography was outstanding. Boy, was she right! I've added you blog to my reader, Feedly. I'm going back to read some of your older posts and will look forward to new postings, too. BTW, I grew Cosmos many, many years and just recently didn't plant them. After your gorgeous pictures, Cosmos will again be part of my gardens; I'd forgotten how beautiful they were. Here in the Midwest of the USA, they do not self-seed. That's probably because we have such cold, cold temperatures during winter. That would be lovely though I won't mind planting new seeds each year.LJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01612629420194084787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5720710250003549011.post-57021412961191051472018-03-23T07:48:27.610+11:002018-03-23T07:48:27.610+11:00Bliss upon bliss!
