Rhinos

I moved into our SOMA loft last October and Steve followed once we were married in November. Point being, we've never lived in SOMA during the summer months...the months when the Farmers Market at the Ferry Building is really going crazy with deliciousness and beauty. Last Saturday we woke up early and walked to Coit Tower and then back home along the Embarcadero. We made a quick stop at the Farmers Market for Breakfast Sandwiches and flowers. The sandwiches were a hit as usual but I couldn't decide what flowers to buy. I ended up taking a chance on a $5 bunch of rhinoculous flowers. I was worried though because they were sort of closed up and weed looking with stems going haywire in every direction. I'm happy to report that it was $5 well spent. Look how cute they've gotten! I love the loopy, crazy, all over the place stems! Steve told me I shouldn't call them rhinos but rather their proper name: Ranunculaceae family, Anemone genus. He didn't know the species because apparently it's a cultivar? What?
