Flowers on the road
Every day when Im driving home from work there are people walking around the street selling flowers. They are there day after day religiously. I wonder how long they stay there and how many flowers they actually sell.
I have seen a lot of strange things here in MD but never a flower business created on the corner of Jones Bridge and Connecticut Ave. Don’t they need a license for this sort of thing?
I may buy some for valentines day for my husband. :)

A really well-produced 27-minute video from Super Splash Wave about 8-bit and 16-bit pixel art: What I liked about the video is that it doesn’t just revel in nostalgia, but goes deeper into some techniques and trends and details in the videogame graphics o...
