Und allem Weh zu Trotze bleib ich
Verliebt in die verrückte Welt.

this and that

Have I told you, that I don't have a wreath on my door right now? I have live plants instead! I love it!
I got this little hanging basket for free and right away knew it had to hang on my door. Well.. I wasn't about to spend money on fake flowers. (mostly because I don't have it) so I was thinking and then it occurred to me: I got a little pot of chamomile at the same time (also for free) and I stuck that in the little basket! It looked so cute! Then the chamomile grew and had to be planted elsewhere. Now I have nasturtiums in it and they bloom! I am loving it!
What do you think?

Then I am drying lavender! My dehydrator is full of it and the house smells so delicious!

I still have this much on the first two bushes and the second two aren't blooming yet, but have at least that much more to be harvested!

My winter tea supply is safe! I am also thinking of making some lavender wands for the closets! YAYYY! (tutorial coming)

This is the view we had just now out on a little drive to pick up a craigslist free box:
Isn't this beautiful???

There were a couple of really nice digital cameras in the box among other things.... I will go play with them now! :D

You know, people often tell me I'm very creative. But they never met YOU! You're always doing something, making something awesome!
