Photo: Melissa Ward Aguilar A welcome deluge of rain liliesBack to GalleryI noticed them just before sunset on the day the remnants of Hurricane Harvey finally veered eastward: wild rain lilies waving in the amber light on a weedy lot next door.This was two days after the first sign of hope that pulled me outside, following two days of hunkering down and looking at almost nothing beyond the TV and computer screens: a double rainbow that spread like a giant, upside-down smile across the sky.Finally. Mercifully.Then each one of those humble flowers offered six little petals of cheer.TranslatorTo read this article in one of Houston's most-spoken languages, click on the button below.Nothing comforts a g... http://www.houstonchronicle.com/life/article/A-welcome-deluge-of-rain-lilies-12183324.php
Flowers by Adela - Community Impact Newspaper
Tuesday, February 07, 2017Fri. 9 a.m.-5:30 p.m., closed Saturdays and SundaysDelivery: Flowers By Adela delivers to Missouri City, Sugar Land, Richmond, Rosenberg, Katy, Fulshear, Fresno, Rosharon, Meadows Place, Houston, Bellaire, Needville and the Texas Medical Center.In 1999, Ohl and her husband, Olan, bought the business from Adela Pendergrass, who opened Flowers By Adela on Feb. 1, 1977, at 3756 Cartwright Road and then opened a Sugar Land store five years later.By 2012, Ramona and Olan’s daughters, Olivia Ohl-Lara and Odessa Ohl, were working for the business full time.Flowers by Adela lists among its clients all Fort Bend ISD schools and the Fort Bend Chamber of Commerce. Designs range from roses to tropical and artificial plants. Same-day delivery for orders placed by 3 p.m. is available.Out-of-state and international customers place orders for their friends or relatives who live in the area, Odessa said.“I even have this lady—she probably does this two times a year—she calls from London,” she said.The business has weathered two recessions in the Greater Houston area. The Ohls saw a drop in orders when the price of oil plummeted two years ago. So how has the business managed to stay afloat?“By the grace of God,” Odessa said.Web searches and social media now generate nearly 85 percent of customer orders, Ohl-Lara said.The Ohls are uncertain what the future holds for them. Olivia and Odessa said the long hours that require them to stay on their feet make it a physically demanding job.“It’s very hard work,” Ohl-Lara said. “You’re dealing with perishables … you can’t sit on these for a long period of time.”But the Ohls said a florist provides significant experience for the workplace and also for life in general.“We try to give everybody personal service and make it right,” Ohl-Lara said.

Texas Florist Who Admitted to Being in Pelosi’s Office Wants Case Moved from D.C. Because of ‘Cancel Culture’ - Law & Crime
Wednesday, March 31, 2021Washington, D.C. because of “cancel culture.” The defense for Texas florist Jenny Louise Cudd, who was on video happily admitting to being in the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, asserted authorities were creating the “illusion” of a conspiracy between her and Eliel Rosa by linking their cases.“According to the Government’s Statement of Facts, the two were seen on security footage walking into the building, walking around, and walking out,” attorney Marina Medvin said in a filing Wednesday. “There is no evidence of communications or a plan between the two to enter the Capitol. Instead, the evidence is purported to be that they were at the same place, at the same time, followed a crowd into the open doors of the Capitol building, then walked out. They didn’t take anything, they didn’t break anything.”Cudd was among rioters raiding the U.S. Capitol Building on Jan. 6, after then-President Donald Trump continued to lie that he actually won the 2020 presidential election. The invaders postponed but did not prevent Congress for counting electoral college votes weighing in favor of the real winner, Preside... https://lawandcrime.com/u-s-capitol-siege/texas-florist-who-admitted-to-being-in-pelosis-office-wants-case-moved-from-d-c-because-of-cancel-culture/

Cudd was arrested Wednesday and charged with a misdemeanor accused of taking part in the Capitol riots.She could be seen smiling and waving at cameras as she left a virtual hearing. She told media outlets she’d, “do it again, and I’d have a gas mask next time.”Here’s where the Roseville store comes in.

Opinion: Florist charged for participating in Capitol riot should be denied trip to Mexico - Houston Chronicle
Sunday, February 28, 2021Violently breaching the Capitol is just a misdemeanor; similar to a minor traffic violation? Since when? Contrast that with Crystal Mason, an African American woman, who a Texas state court sentenced to five years in prison for illegally casting a provisional ballot because she had not yet completed her term of supervised release from prison. The African American woman gets five years for not understanding voting rules regarding probationers, and a white woman has only traffic citation-like charges for rampaging through the Capitol. If that’s called justice; justice is upside down. Patrick J. Killman, Houston Minimum wage Regarding “Dems attempt to usher through school funding, wage increase,” (A6, Feb. 10): One size doesn’t fit all in many situations. A $15 minimum wage may fit New York City but not rural Louisiana. For entry-level jobs for high school and college students a $15 minimum wage may decrease opportunities. Also, some businesses may be more suited to higher minimum wages than others. Hopefully our political leaders can work better together on this important issue. The devil is truly in the details! Mike Fuljenz, Beaumont From the Editorial Board Shame, shame, shame Regarding “‘Sheer cloudy vagueness’ cost one worker his job,” (A27, Feb. 7): Shame on you Academy Sports.
