                I think I'd pass on an invitation to that dinner, LOL...But how does one try to drink a Guinness? It sounds like 'trying to walk', something that's 'automatic' after one has reached the age of a year and a half, roughly...

                Yes better to avoid eye contact Rpresta, but you might be surprised to learn that men rarely refuse a bunch of flowers for the wife. I have noticed when I put free ones out if men notice them they will participate.

                Flowers may represents gentleness and kindness unconsciously to people. Then again, some people may just be chatty!

                I would guess that generally, women approve of flowers, and since you are nurturing the pretty things--flowers, that is--you win some approval by default and are seen as nice enough to talk to.

                Would they stop and chat if it wasn't a nice day? Maybe it's just the weather... I'm sure you're not at all threatening, CCT.

                You have so much in this post.  Some of it reminds me of when I was a child and how I loved my Dad's gardens and my mom's cooking.  I really, really, did not like us being invited to friends or neighbors for meals because in comparison to my mom's cooking, it was definitely inedible.

                You do a good job of embroidering.  Almost makes me want to try a Guinness.  I've never had one.

                on a drowsy summer afternoon
to the hum of a bee 
and a wee pause as a flower is found
and then of course the sound
commences to be.
  As the search for sweetness resumes
on a drowsy summer afternoon.
  Just in case you had no inspiration, I tried to embroider with your thread...
