Kiss her, she's Iris

Now here's an eye-opener: the Ponca City Iris Festival, 5-7 May, is looking for women named Iris for recognition and a special presentation.

As though the wine/cheese tasting and the Victorian Chocolate Festival — not to mention an appearance by Roy Clark — weren't enough.

(I grow irises myself — actually, they grow without much help from me — so I should probably go to this thing just for the flowers.)
