The Prophet ad for the Valentine's run turned out very well. I especially liked the heart-firework. Very appropriate all round.
And the quarterly report looked quite solid, too. I wonder if it'd be worth your while to swing by Zonko's, bring him some complimentary samples, remind him what he's missing out on this Hogsmeade weekend?
I had a random idea for a floral line that could be developed for Easter -- hair clips and earrings -- I'll send you a write-up. I think if we come up with four different models, that'd work rather nicely. Bluebells and snowdrops and daffodils and crocuses, for instance. We could put them in eggs, or if you wanted to get extra tricky with the spellwork, make them look like they're growing out of pots. And have you sorted out a safe dye for the Pygmys? I can always work on it on my end of things, but I can't guarantee to have it done in time.
How've things been going with Powell's and Kelpington's? Any wedding fireworks? This isn't really the season for it, but I'd bet things will pick up in Spring, once they get absolutely swamped and have weddings every weekend.
Hitty wrote that she's bought herself a new chair and footstool, and that she'd put up some curtains in the kitchen she'd picked out. Well, she claims they're 'the house's', and seems rather insistent on calling it a 'home improvement allowance' rather than a salary, but she seemed quite chuffed all the same. I'm sure if you ask after it, she'd be thrilled to show you her improvements. She also was very keen on sending along a birthday present as well, which was quite sweet of her. (The card and chocs from the two of you were also quite sweet, especially since you were kind enough to make sure none of them were joke ones. Thanks very much.)
I'm sorry I haven't been more on top of things. It looks as though you're managing to limp along without my help, though. Barely. It's so very brave of you to continue on as you have -- quite a testament to your collective stubbornness, I'm sure.
I really
This entire thing is quite silly, you know. Trying one's hardest to look as loyal as possible, but not quite good enough. I don't think I like trying to lose. It's rather frustrating at times.
Enough of my blathering on. I'll send on what I'm thinking about the flowers, and maybe I'll get a chance to see you this weekend.
