If you've received a flower arrangement from Little Miss Lovely in the past few weeks, you may have noticed stems of fine, little, highly-scented thyme leaves. I've been cutting fresh thyme out of my garden and incorporating it into my arrangements. I had read an article published by the Philadelphia Horticulture Society that stated, "Thyme is loaded with vitamin C and is an antiviral, a big point these days because of COVID-19." The herb contains compounds that have been shown to help treat bacterial and fungal infections as well. Herbalists recommend thyme to relieve coughing spells and muscle spasms. Not sure if these small stems in my flower arrangements will cure sickness, but here's hoping my thyme will help LML's clients heal, stay healthy, and bring joy! 
My flower studio and our home are located on a 1.5 mile long rural street that leads to the St. Martin’s Neck River. I think it’s one of the most beautiful spots in our county. I’ve adopted our street and am a steward of the land (look into adopting a street via @mdcoastalbays ). I pick up roadside trash on the regular. Yesterday, I picked up 80+ aluminum beer & soda cans along our 1.5 mile street. These two bags of trash were collected in just one months time. ♻️ How can one, short, rural street (that only has 10 homes on it) become littered with 2 bags full of trash in one month?! We all need to DO BETTER when it comes to disposing of our trash and recyclables. Take the time to do it right. Don’t litter. Don’t drink and drive. It is still littering if you toss your trash out of your vehicle window even while on a country road where no one sees you do it. It’s not sneaky - it’s terrible. Take better care of nature, your neighbors, your county, and Earth. Hold yourself accountable. 🌎 Thanks for reading my rant. If you feel moved, go outside and clean up your neighborhood today. ✌🏻 
The VALENTINE'S DAY collection in Little Miss Lovely's online store is LIVE! ♥️♥️♥️ Valentine's Day is on a Sunday this year... and with the pandemic still encompassing our lives and restricting our lifestyles, I'm hoping you'll choose LML to help deliver some special love to your loved ones. If you can't take your Valentine out for a fancy dinner, send her some LML flowers and enjoy a romantic evening at home. 🌹🍷 I've already ordered all of my Valentine's Day flowers, plants, candies, and cards. Limited quantities of each item will be available. I'm hoping to host a small pop up shop at West-O Bottle Shop & Bar & Rise Up in West OC on 2/13 for all of the last-minute shoppers. Place your flower orders early as I do hope to sell out! Thank you for your business! 
Many of the couples who got engaged over the holidays are starting their wedding planning journey. My inbox has a few inquiries from clients asking about LML's availability for 2021 & 2022 wedding dates. The 2021 calendar is nearly filled while 2022 has a majority of open dates. Want Little Miss Lovely to help with your wedding florals? Inquire on the LML website & Ami will email you with more information. ❤
