Gardening Again

So I've gotten the hang of this gardening thing. I've already taken seeds from my first harvest and started a batch for fall. They've gotten so big, I had to re-plant most of them already. I'll have to get to the rest today.
Here's some of my cherry tomatoes:

And my cherry peppers:

I also started a pineapple:

And here's my Mug O the Day!

It's an old souvenier from our local zoo here in West Palm Beach.

Mugginess


For years, my mother has collected quite a variety of mugs. Some are large, some small, some ceramic, some glass, some handpainted, (etc.).... Often, they were displayed on the walls of our house growing up and were rarely used.
Until now!
When cleaning up the old place, my mom came across many of the mugs being stored in cardboard boxes. She brought them in and cleaned them up - and now we have hundreds of mugs to use! I had no idea there were so many!
Here's two of my favorites so far:
Panda mug:

And this Daisy Mug, which my mother tells me was one of the first she recived after she and my father were married:

hello


Well, well, well... I guess I'm guilty of ignoring my blog. Again.

We've been terribly busy this month, between work, play, and more work! A couple of beer holsters have been shipped out:

And my peppers have have been harvested! Unfortunately, they're not very big. The two small peppers are hot peppers that I think got warped through cross-breeding.


I have a whole new season of cherry tomatoes growing! I harvested the seeds from my first plantings (the tomatoes are delicious!) and hopefully we'll have ripe tomatoes by the time the first generation harvest is finished.

Wednesday fun

I spent the day watching the Watchmen movie. It was unintentional, as I had planned on getting a bunch of house work done today. However, my sister's boyfriend had just rented it and I totally love the movie, so I just couldn't say no to spending the next three hours planted on the couch.

I did manage to get a tiny bit of planting done. My cherry and wax peppers are doing so well that I saved the seeds and replanted some. AND I harvested seeds from my cherry tomatoes and replanted them a few days ago. Today they started to sprout!!

Also, I'll be listing this awesome little coin purse soon!

I haven't blogged about any of my wonderful handmade finds in awhile, and I wanted to make sure I mentioned these awesome soaps I got from IndulgentCreations! Having been enamored with handcrafted soaps for quite some time, I've purchased many online and my only complaint with them would be that they don't typically last as long as store-bought soap. However, these amazing soaps by IndulgentCreations not only smell delightful and leave me feeling squeaky clean, but they last forever! In fact, I'm still on my first bar! I think i'll shower twice a day just so I can try the next fabulous scent!

Sunday Fun

It is Sunday, right? I took the day off from work yesterday, ended up not feeling well and spent most of the day sleeping. So, of course I woke up this morning all wide-eyed and bushy-tailed thinking it's Monday.

I think we might go snorkeling. Or to the dog beach. Or both.

no time for blogging

Well, I've been a bit busy lately; my sister even found me a part time job printing t-shirts for her boat crew! So, yay for extra cash and easy jobs.

And check this out: I'm in a treasury by bellasbowtique2008!I have been, in my spare time (instead of blogging) playing this cute game on facebook: And look! My little people go to the bathroom! Ha!
