I don't have air conditioning either. My problem with open windows at night is the neighbors. In the morning after a night of windows open, my house can smell like garbage, or the musty greasy odor of their used outdoor grills. Everyone else use air conditioning, so they don't care.
This is why my computer is in the basement, where the temperature is always pleasant.

Did not know lily shows were ranked in any kind of a format at all!
That's the first time I have ever seen a vegetable incorporated into a lily arrangement. (other than our traditional rhubarb used to prop stems in their vases.)
That arrangement with the rebar is pretty funky. Not sure I'd like it on my dining room table, though...
