    Actually she is my best friend, Jordan. We live together due to her hubby being in nursing home (dementia). Luckily I didn't start the buying spree yet. And I always have my other best friend that I can send packages to and she will help me sneak them in later!!!!

    Share your orchids with her, Jordan, and I'm sure you'll have no problems.
