Mother's Day Flowers

Mama Don't Preach

05.04.2009

The Bite:
Been losing sleep over a Mom's Day gift? Make up your mind and go classic with flowers from Silver Lake Farms. SLF'll create one-of-a-kind organic bouquets on the spot (just name your price) using pretties like sweet peas, anemones, and ranunculus. You can preorder for pick up at the Silver Lake Farmers' Market, or nab a premade arrangement in a little vase - better yet, BYO vase, drop it off before shopping, and pick it up 30 minutes later, packed with flowers. We are in love.
Why Care?: 
Flowers grown locally without pesticides minimize the need to ship 'em superfar and keeps chems outta the environment - and outta your nose when you take a whiff.
Question: If we've got a dog, we can cash in on Mother's Day, right?
Wanna Try: 
Silver Lake Farms; available at Silver Lake Farmers' Market, 3700 Sunset Blvd. (323-644-3700). Flower bunches, $5 and up; premade vase arrangements, $35 and up.

Cocktail Fact

Madonna is the only person who’s received Razzie Awards for Worst Actress (Swept Away), Worst Supporting Actress (Die Another Day), and Worst Screen Couple (Swept Away) in the same year.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 LA Biters choose organic flowers for Mother's Day instead of conventionally grown ones, we'll avert the weight of over 36 full 12-inch vases in pesticides.
