After getting those flowers for her 80th birthday, my mother decided to stop by the local flower shop and tell the people there what a good job they did with them.
And, they told her thanks, and they also said that I was "very precise" in saying what I wanted for her.
I wonder if they really meant it, that I was somehow more exact in describing what she likes and what I wanted than most customers are, or if that's just something that they just always say in those situations to make the gift seem more personal, since they are in fact the skilled people assembling the flowers on behalf of me for money, after all.
