there will be justice

"...they say you die twice. One time when you stop breathing, and  the second time, a bit later on, when somebody says your name for the last time."

Cpl. Nathan Cirillo

I hope and pray that what we remember and what we talk about is the energy and enthusiasm that this young man had in his life; that we look to our troops and realize that they are willing to be in harm's way - for our sake - at any and every turn; that the distorted agenda and cowardly evil of a few individuals does not eclipse the security that our armed forces and police work every day to protect and uphold.  

And, I hope and pray that there will be no paradise, no 72 dark-eyed maidens... only justice.

The most magical time of year - leaves turning colour, crisp evening air and even crisper apples at the farmers markets - at i fiori we are so ready for autumn with branches and seed pods and flowers in rich saturated colours!
This week we also have fresh thyme and sage in the shop - perfect for adding to roasted root vegetables or including in your turkey stuffing.

hare's foot fern

Since we are all beginning to spend more time inside, there are lots of new plants & ferns to choose from - the natural air cleaners!

And... wait for it... a   s-a-l-e?

This Friday evening (October 10) between 7pm and 9pm during the October art crawl, i fiori is tidying up our inventory as we make room for the new season and new items. There are onesies and twosies of vases and pots looking for a home, and we will have a sale table featuring these items. Many will be half price or less!
And just so the new vases and pots don't feel left out - all regular priced ceramic and glass will be also be 15% off regular prices.

See you in the shop!
