Sweet Saturdays - Perfect Roses

For Diana's Sweet Saturdays I am posting a photo of these perfect roses I took at the grocery store this week. Aren't they gorgeous? Have a great day!


My sister and brother (who live in the States) have recently cancelled their telephone land lines, we've been instructed to call them on their cell phone numbers. This must be a growing trend. Indeed, L and her roommates at university decided not to get a land line this current school year. Have you done the same yet?

I was thinking about cutting my land line... here in Italy it's expensive and I could use my cell phone and a pen drive for the internet.
the roses are beautiful! Love the colors!!

We do not have a land line here, we only use our mobile phones. Beautiful roses ^_^
Have a lovely day!

I love both bouquets, but the one on the left is so unusual ~ I love the streaked petals... gorgeous! Light pink roses make me think of young love and innocence... very sweet :)

Gorgeous roses, as you said, Christine! I love them!

We are keeping our land line, because we need the fax machine, which is attached to it. Also, when there is no electricity, we cannot use our cellphones, so the land line comes in handy. In fact, hubby and I use our cells just for emergencies in our car.

that's the best part of valentine's day - the pretty roses everywhere!
It is tempting to cancel landlines, especially when a person can get sufficient minutes on a cell without too much cost. Not my case - so i still have mine

For right now we still have a land line. Our Internet service is through the phone company, and they require it.

I love roses too. They seem to last longer than they did before.

Christine said...

Megan, I love the streaked roses too!

It seems most of us still have our land lines, but it's changing fast...

Your roses are just gorgeous! Love it when they look so perfect. I've not had a land line for about 5 years now. I really haven't missed it a bit. I definitely don't miss the bill, lol!

Beautiful roses Christine.....I always stop and smell roses when I am out walking.
Cancelling land lines is definitely a growing trend. It is sad because I use a telephone card to call my international friends as it only costs me $1 for an hour's conversation.

Yup! My at&t land line bill used to be about $75.00 and then plus my cell phone which is around $50.00 I get incoming calls on my land line, as the quality is better when you are not connecting two cells phones, and also because my security system is on it. It is now "basic" It is down to $29.00. So I have saved about $50.00

Love the gorgeous roses. Happy Valentine's Day from the US
