Saan Kayo Nabili ng Flowers Para sa Mahal Nyo pag Valentine's Day

[chua_riwap]

Saan ba kayo nabili ng flowers na binibigay nyo sa mga Loves nyo pag Valentine's Day? Karamihan sa Dangwa, alam ko. Yung mga "may budget", sa mga flower shops. Yung iba naman sa tabi-tabi na lang (bangketa) kasi marami nagsusulputang pwesto pag Valentine's Day. Minsan kahit yung mga flower shops sa mga Funeral Parlors available din ito. He-he! (Hwag mo na lang sabihin sa syota mo na sa funeraria nabili ito.)

Ako, dati sa Dangwa rin. Pero malayo kasi sa amin ito, kaya sa tabi-tabi na lang, mas mura at okay din naman yung flower arrangements nila.

Dito sa Saudi, pwede order via Sky Freight, Sky Luv (plugging pa). Medyo mahal nga lang.

Happy Valentine's po to all Tsikoteers!

Sa Dangwa lang ako bumibili sir, mura na mas marami pang pagpipiliang arrangements.

Happy Valentine's to all!

[freeloader]

Sa Marikina sir mura din po.

Ewan ko lang kung ano matatawag na "mura" pagdating sa bulaklak at dalawang beses pa lang ata ako namimigay ng bulaklak.

Nung isang taon bumili ako sa florista malapit sa amin, sa Bicutan. Okey na rin.

Designer Bloom...

mahal nga lang sobra... pero ibibigay naman sa minamahal at isang beses lang ito sa isang taon kaya okay lang...

masama naman ibigay sa minamahal ang mura diba...


just kidding... whatever fits the budget, important is that the thought that count... (tama sana gramar kow..)

Hindi ata isini-celebrate ang Valentine's Day dito. Pero may mga flower shops din akong nakita, pero di ko napansin kung may roses sila. Alam mo naman dito sa Saudi, lahat binabawal ng mga Balbas (muttawa). Bawal maging romantic in public.

Pero, ang mga Pinoys, nakakabili ng flowers via sa mga Door to Door companies, like Sky Freight. Order ka ng gusto mo, then yung opis nila sa Manila, dadalhin sa "Love" mo sa Manila. O di ba ok?

For a couple of months, ok pa rin siya at mabango pa rin? Ano kaya secret nila't napapanatili nilang ganito? Yung sa iba madaling malanta.

Dangwa pag lumanta inuuod... at mapapansin niyo kung saan saan nila tinatambak ang mga bulaklak, sometimes nahulog na sa kanal eh dinadampot pa nila... yuck... ;D

maganda lang bumili sa dangwa pag madaling araw, iyun oras ng bagsakan ng mga bulaklak, at pagbili eh bulto... hindi iyun naka display na...

Pareho kami ng taste ni Miss. Mamichula... :rose: tama, mas matagal mag lanta ang flowers galing Designer Bloom... suking suki nila ako doon...

btw. para hindi lumanta eh lagyan mo ng isang patak na bleech with water sa flower pot.

Pero sa Singapore,- ini-encourage pa ng gobyerno..... Dapat,- nandoon ang mga Pinoy!!!.....

No LOVE for Valentines in Saudi Arabia

Agence France-Presse

RIYADH - True to tradition, Saudi Arabia's religious police are zealously enforcing a ban on Valentine's Day symbols in the austere Muslim kingdom.

But in other Gulf Arab countries, celebrations of the traditional lovers' day are now common and appear to be gaining acceptance. "We have not been selling red roses for a week and we will not bring in any until Valentine's Day is over," said Alan, a Filipino working at a flower shop in the Saudi capital, Riyadh.

He said a member of the religious police, known as Muttawa, visited the shop a week ago and ordered the florists not to display any red roses in the runup to February 14.

At a gift shop in the city, a salesman said the Muttawa had told him to remove from the shelves any red-color gifts symbolizing the feast of love.
"We also removed red gift boxes so as not to expose ourselves to punishment, which could be to close the shop and arrest staff," said Mohammad Hassanein al-Hawari.

The Muttawa, whose formal name is the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice, does not stop at just openly inspecting shops. "Agents" in camouflage clothes check to ensure their orders are heeded, he told AFP.

One member of the religious police, who gave his name only as Abdurrahman, checked out shops lining Prince Sultan Street in Olaya district for anything smacking of Valentine's Day. None was evident.

"The West exports to us habits and feasts which contradict sharia (Islamic law) and wants us to imitate them. We want to make sure that sharia is implemented. We punish anyone who commits or abets a violation," he said.

Saudi Arabia declared the feast named after the Christian patron saint of love a "pagan Christian holiday" through a fatwa (religious edict) issued seven years ago by its grand mufti, Sheikh Abdul Aziz al-Sheikh.

In neighboring Kuwait, where liberals and Islamists invariably clash over Valentine's Day, Islamists have raised the tone this year.

The head of the Islamic Sharia College at Kuwait University, Mohammad al-Tabtabai, issued a fatwa stipulating that the feast is banned under Islam, and two Islamist MPs demanded that the government ban Valentine's Day celebrations, which they said promote immorality.

But main supermarkets and flower shops in the Gulf emirate are filled with Valentine's Day paraphernalia, while hotels publish adverts tempting couples to a dinner and a one-night stay at discounted rates.

"I don't know why Islamists want to ban celebrations of Valentine's Day... I don't think marking Valentine's Day violates Islamic teachings," middle-aged Kuwaiti employee Mahmoud Ahmad told AFP as he chose a gift for his wife.

In Bahrain, Islamist protests appear to have been drowned by the increasing popularity of Valentine's Day.

"Last year, we imported 20,000 red roses for Valentine's Day. This year, we increased the quantity to 25,000" due to rising demand, said Varghese Modiyil, manager of one of Manama's flower shops. "I usually give my wife a bouquet (of red roses) on Valentine's Day ... It's not a celebration in the full sense of the word -- just a gesture to renew our love," confided Nawaf al-Ghanem, a 31-year-old Bahraini bank employee.

Red lingerie and heart-shaped jewelry, cushions and teddy bears, offer a wide choice at one shopping mall in Dubai, the most Western-oriented of the seven emirates making up the United Arab Emirates and where citizens make up only around 20 percent of the population.

Gift shops and jewelers in Qatar were also decked in red, even though the gas-rich Gulf state is not immune to the slanging matches over the occasion.

"It is unfortunate that some shopowners advertise these (Valentine's Day) items and use them to decorate their shops in pursuit of material gain, flouting our norms and violating our religion," a disgruntled Qatari wrote in a letter to the daily Al-Raya.
