Quicksilver will become famous soon enoughQuicksilver will become famous soon enough
1000%.

If i came home with flowers that cost that much my wife would give me a look that would burn a hole in the back of my head and then i would have received a lecture about what could have been done what that money.

I get my wife cut flowers, selected by yours truly, at our local florist,
about 4 or 5 times a year; $35 buys a bundle of cuts you can barely
carry home.

Are you trying to impress your wife, her co-workers or, work off guilt?

Do what you must, but it's a bs "special day",imo...I love my wife to bits
every day, (more so every day, even after 25+ yrs), and she knows it.
Roses are overdone...how 'bout a live orchid from Walmart for <$20. If
kept in indirect light, and fresh when bought, it should keep its blooms
for weeks and come back next year with lil' care.
My Qtr's up.
