Gardening time

We headed to the Farmer's Market last Saturday ready to buy some plants and start growing our own vegtables. We picked up a few small tomato plants and decided to do the rest from seeds. With a handful of seed packets I knew we needed some way to remember what seeds we planted where.

Then I saw the colorful toothpicks in the kitchen and remembered something I saw on Samsstuff recently. Fun and colorful and complete with clear tape over both sides to keep them safe when we are watering, they are just want we needed. I still need to make a few more but think I'm off to a good start. I'm happy with how they turned out and now I just hope something will grow...What are you growing in your garden this summer?

Please let me know if you find me from a link-up party!

You never know what you might see

Yes, you never know what you might see. This is why I always try to carry my camera with me. The weather has been just beautiful the last few days. I have been enjoying it with the windows up in the house and down in the car. The flowers and trees are starting to bloom and I have found more architectural work, or rather it has found me! I can't ask for anything more, well maybe just that it keeps on coming...

Yesterday at my weekly creative lunch meeting in the park with my friend we saw these guys.

Cool bikes, huh? But I have no idea how you would get on or off of them and I'm sure that if you were riding one you'd be praying the whole time you don't have to stop or that you don't fall over.

Have a great weekend!
