A special gift

I got this rose for a special occasion and I've remembered a quote of one of my favourite authors:

"C'est le temps que tu as perdu pour ta rose qui fait ta rose si importante"

"It is the time you have wasted for your rose

that makes your rose so important"

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
in Le Petit Prince

(I also got a baguette, but I thought it was nicer to show just the rose !!)
