Indoor Gardens and Morning Shadows

Here are some mini gardens my husband made for me...he makes them for me to see before he decides to sell them...the top one is my favorite...it reminds me of sea plants

I love how they are itty bitty...this one was filled with tiny cuttings of pachyverias and graptoverias
Here is the sedum forest...its all stretched out because its not getting enough light...it does look pretty though...the little flowers are so cute.
I am surprised the cat has not screwed with them yet...he totally jacked my succularium

Some shadows on the kitchen counter...Have a nice morning

Art and Nature

I saw this piece called Shocking Pink Merci Girl with Mimosa on the front page of Etsy a while ago. I loved it because of the colors. Whats even better about Thevy(what a fabulous name by the way!) Guex's work is its a collage. She uses leaves and flowers and petals...FANTASTIC. If you come here you will know three things about me.
First: I LOVE flowers
Second: I love flamboyant colors
Third: I love food
This piece covers the first two loves...if only it were edible
(also further down on that list if i made it larger...french things...i dig them...this piece also falls into that category as well)
Please check out the shop ThevysHerbarium
check out her blog too!

Right Now

We have wrapped up our egg dyeing...

Here is the helper...she is very silly and has banana on her face...

The helper wanted to try and hold all of the eggs...I told her that was probably a bad idea...

Eggy eyes...

The helper is very excited for the Easter bunny and beagle...

All you need to dye eggs are some food coloring and white vinegar...

The last of the dye going down the sink...now its time to get ready to go to Grandmother's house!

Flowers

Hopefully this weekend I will transfer my photos to my flickr site. That way I don't have to keep posting about these flowers...My husband is going to make an icon for my blog to link it all up because really I am truly challenged when it comes to the computer stuff...totally lame I know...

I think I love ranunculus even more when they are at their end...their petals totally open up...pollen starts to get everywhere...like a pretty girl with her makeup all smudgy and stuff...

I loved this arrangement mostly because it smelled so good and it had light blue delphiniums...I love delphiniums...the hybrid ones are so gorgeous sometimes you can get them in pink too!

I liked this photo because of all the different colored glass going on...

Delphinium blossoms and my favorite silk ribbons...By the way have a great weekend...I am off to find chocolate bunnies for my daughter's Easter basket.

Wednesday's Lunch

I am already thinking about lunch...I hope it is as good as this one but I am feeling lazy today...

There is nothing like pan roasted grape tomatoes, shallots, and garlic chunks in olive oil(which by the way I forgot to buy at the market this morning)...Throw in some herbs De Provence and left over chicken breast and the top picture is what you get!

Today I...

took a picture of...
My favorite tree...I think its a locust...


My herb garden...I will call it Lady Bug on Oregano...



Look its time...I mean thyme in the rock garden..

My own graffiti on our desk...There is even a recipe for lamb quesadillas and tomato chutney from boy meets grill on there

And a drawing of petaless anenomes...

Good Morning

I feel happy and sunshiny...this feeling may change... however I am totally gonna go with it...

Also I wish I had some of these for my coffee this morning but they were baked on Monday so of course there are none now...
