"...You comin' to the party, or whaaat?"
To my eyes, the front orchid has the slack-jawed look of a surfer "under the influence". Maybe it's just me, but I hope other people see it, too.
Party or not, have a great Wednesday!

It's a groovy club called the I-C-IT-2 club!

Barbara, Tiia, Pom, Tammy, and Carolyn, thanks for commenting. I appreciate your friendly response.
Carolyn, I swear I was sober while editing this. Then again, maybe I ate too much chocolate beforehand... #10130433

It's a real beauty, Mary, and I can see the face in the flower too! Maybe it's because I just ate half a block of family chocolate too!! :-P The colour is most exquisite! I agree with Laura, it should be added to her club! heheee!! #10130568
