You have to make sure every petal is perfect,” Miller said.The color red reigns supreme on Valentine’s Day, and roses are the shop’s most popular order, of course.“Roses are the Cadillac of flowers,” Miller joked. “The Rolls Royce, how about that.”She got out of church Sunday morning and headed straight to her work station at Pippin.

Matthew K. Weiland“Well when you're sitting backin your rose-pink CadillacMaking bets on Kentucky Derby DayI'll be in my basement roomwith a needle and a spoonAnd another girl to take my pain away.”- Mick Jagger/Keith Richards – Dead Flowers[In the following personal stories, names have been changed for the sake of discretion.]STEVEN WAS IN THE BACK SEAT when he noticed Amir, riding shotgun, opening his backpack and beginning to assemble his gear. Andy was driving. The three, all around 22, were heading out toward Nelson’s Ledges, getting high on sour diesel, with no destination in mind. “Pull up over here,” Amir told Andy.“Dude,” said Andy. “You’re not doing that right now.”“Duuuuude,” mimicked Amir. “Pull up over here.”Andy finally did so as Amir proceeded with an air of ritual, one which Steven had never seen in person.

Asheville tailgate edibles make great holiday gifts - Asheville Citizen-Times

At the North Asheville Holiday Bazaar, stop by Dave’s Raw Honey. He’s got sourwood honey, extracted in July from flowers of the sourwood tree, which he calls “the Cadillac of honeys” and has a light, delicate flavor. Dave also has other honeys gathered earlier, in May, from flowers of the mountain blackberry and tulip poplar, which have a fuller flavor than that of sourwood honey.Jam is a classic edible gift, one that’s a great choice for someone you aren’t sure what to get. Some local jams to give a try: Root Bottom Farm has their Bear’s Jam, which won in the West Asheville Tailgate Market jam contest this past summer. Find their jam at the West Asheville Tailgate Market for one more week. Imladris Farm has a range of jam flavors from their sixth generation farm. They also have locally, homemade ketchup. Visit them at the North Asheville Holiday Bazaar.Asheville Tea Company, new to the local entrepreneurial scene, has black and green teas made with locally sourced flavorings such as bergamot and ginger. One tea blend is made with yaupon holly, a plant native to the southeast. Yaupon holly is the only edible plant native to North America that contains caffeine. Find Asheville Tea Company at the North Asheville Holiday Bazaar and West Asheville Tailgate Market. Their Happy Holly Days blend is made with yaupon, wintergreen mint and pineapple sage flowers.

Flower shop target of online harassment after Shinkle abstains from Michigan vote - Detroit Free Press

Ashley Nerbovig  Detroit Free PressPeople threatened the life of a Republican on the Michigan canvassing board and tanked the online reviews of his brother's flower shop as the board voted to certify state election results Monday. Republican Norm Shinkle abstained from the vote, alluding to election issues in Detroit, while fellow Republican and Vice Chair Aaron Van Langevelde voted with the board's two Democratic members. The board certified the state election results, which showed Joe Biden earned about 154,000 more votes than President Donald Trump. The next step in the process is for Michigan's electors to cast the state's 16 Electoral College votes on Dec. 14. "I don't know about my Democrat colleagues, but I know Aaron and I received quite a few comments, outright threats, nasty emails telling me my family's at risk," Shinkle said. "I had one person even suggest simply, you got to vote yes to certify for the safety of your family."More: Michigan board votes to certify election results despite GOP calls to delayMore: Mich.

During that time, she looked ahead to what doing business in a world occupied by COVID-19 looked like. She said she did not want to operate like that and risk her health. So she's decided to retire."While we were closed, every day in the news was something different," she said. "I just said, 'I think that it's time.'"'I'm going to miss the customers'Ribar, who still lives down the street from the floral shop, said she was sad to hear the shop still bearing her name would close, but understood why Morrison would decide to do it.She said meeting Morrison decades ago was an important point in her professional life."It would've been a monumental task (to stay open). She's a hard worker, always has been," Ribar said of Morrison. "She does anything you need to do and happy to do it. We did a good thing when we met Lori."Morrison planned to be out of the space by the end of the month. While Morrison said she's looking forward to spending time with family and friends or traveling near Christmas instead of working, she said she will miss the loyal customers that came in all the time looking for that personal touch in flowers. She said she hasn't ruled out helping out in other flower shops in the future; she said she's already had some people inquire if she wants to help during a busier season in the future."I'm going to miss the customers," she said.
