Mums

When I was 13, I received my first "Mum" from my "big sister" for Lincoln Junior High's homecoming during my 7th grade year. It was a real flower. They cost $5-$10 depending on how big. I go into the craft stores today and they contain every possible item known to man kind to help make your very own synthetic "mum" with every possbile way to show your own destinctive personality and by the time you buy all the parts and pieces, well they cost, $35-$75. I was so proud of that first mum. It was simple and real. Go Real!
