The Bee

2014-07-20T18:12:00.001-04:00

Well I have heard that most of the plants sold in all major retail stores is 53% (tested) positive for bee-killing NEONICOTINOIDS. As before you buy for sure the sales woman/man will just give you a black face they don't right? They even don't know that it affects their health if they are expose on these chemicals for long. So then I realize I should buy my flowers at the farmers market they are cheaper and I think they don't have Monsanto in their plants. We bloggers love our bees and flowers right so it is about time we have to know what we plant poor bees I do not know about this. Took this photo at the Lavender Festival here in MI.

Our World Tuesday

2014-06-30T13:15:00.000-04:00

Two weeks ago in our very own township had their fireworks display but we did not go because it seems a bit cold that night. But last weekend I decided to watch another fireworks display which is very close to our house. Indeed, we had a blast! It was a good 20 minutes display of fireworks I guess people do love it and hoping to watch it again next year. For now looking forward to my trip to Canada wohoooo!!

Here is my first lavender harvest this year with lemon balm and mint for my tea. Since I love lavender and herbs thinking of re planting some herbs and at the same time planting MORE lavender around the house or trees. Will see...

I also did harvest many of my lemon balms and mint for tea syrup...and it is done...inside the ref..later will gonna have a refreshing organic tea of my own.

Weekend Reflection

2014-05-16T08:00:00.000-04:00

We may not have anymore snow but then rain is here for a while I think. It feels that we are a month behind supposed to be May but then it feels like April with all the rain and wind. Remember the saying April showers bring May flowers well we had lots of rain this month and last April we had our last (cross my fingers) snow and we had hail too! Is that something like weird but I cannot complain more that is nature playing and I cannot do anything about it. Here is my reflection!

Mi Mushroom

2014-05-04T16:01:00.004-04:00

When I spotted this at our local hardware store I could not resist buying it. My train of thougts were speeding like crazy. One thought that come up is that I am going to put this in our backyard where I found a good mushroom place. But hubby told me to try growing it first in the box so we could see how does it look. When it grew big after 10 days (every day I get excited watching the mushroom getting big) I could not help but cut it and cook it right away and it taste really good. After my first harvest I thought there will be no more mushroom growing but I was wrong it did grow back hehe. I am a happy camper because I think I have to go back to the store and buy another one and then maybe I will scatter it in my mushroom place. ^_^

Anthurium Close Up

2014-03-30T15:31:00.001-04:00

My first ever Anthurium plants. I remember when I was in college my mom started to like this plant. She started to collect different colors but then we live in the city our space is not big enough to make big garden so she settled to pots which was a very good idea then. When I spotted this flower at the store it immediately reminds me of my mom.

My Plants

2014-03-23T20:25:00.000-04:00

Know what I am so envious of some of my friends in another state they already have flowers in their yard while I who lives here in Michigan still waiting to thaw all the snow. Today the ground is so frozen it feels like rock! So what I did last week I started to do some seeding..

Last week I post my chayote this week here is my more than a week chayote

I bought this in the store. When I opened the packed I was startled I did not see or feel any seeds at all rather it's like all roots. But I trust the store who sold the seeds that this will grow or else I will bring the whole thing and returned it. Thankfully, I did not go to that route hehe when I saw the tiny sprout coming from this poor thing. I think this plant will gonna grow pretty and strong will see.

Hubby and I went to a nearby town and visit their museum. I know why I like visiting museum's because it's history in there and I like history. When I went to the kitchen stuff old items stuff I am very much impressed I have not seen many plastics items and that is what I like to re create in our kitchen no plastics...

Chayote

2014-03-09T18:35:00.003-04:00

These is one vegetable that I so long since I arrived here 10 years ago. We call it chayote in the Philippines and when I found this vegetable at the store and some Asian stores I grabbed it immediately. Spring is just around the corner and this time my chayote is ready to grow.
