ranunc helps the funk

it's a rather cold & blustery day and not much going on this time of year in terms of flowers on the landscape.

i was sulking my way through the grocery store the other day when i came upon some gorge bunches of ranunculus for 8.99 a pop.  and i had read recently somewhere that people who purchase flowers are some percentage happier than people who spend their money elsewhere {totes botching this statistic but my takeaway told me to buy. obvs.}  

and they do make me happy.

oh, also, i've been attempting to exercise lately {NOT my strong suit}

so obvs i'm hungry and this cake caught my eye while i was admiring images of ranunculus.
