In the Pink

Good evening/early morning :) As you might have noticed, I've changed the design/layout a little/lot. I have no particular reasoning, just that I feel like we all look a little better surrounded by pink :) There are limits, however, to what I can do with blogger templates and mediocre html skills, so thank you for your patience while I work on improving this blog.

Anyhow, I've got some other writing to be doing right now so I'll keep this entry short. I just wanted to post some pictures I took of these really cute poppies which popped up (heh) unexpectedly in my garden this summer. Incidentally, they happen to be pink so I thought they'd fit in nicely with the new layout :)

Right now I have a mess of wildflowers growing in and amongst various vegetables in my garden, but I think the pink poppies have got to be my favourites. -A totally unexpected delight. You see, in February I started on a very ambitious project to grow all of the annuals this year from seed using my aerogarden as a growlight...

Meet Pumpkin!

This is my little sister with the newest member of my family! Little Pumpkin is just 7 weeks old but she's quite the character :) More pics to come!

In other news, I am in the midst of working on another furniture reno project, which I will be soon posting a little more about in the projects section.

News from the farm is also incoming :) I have some pictures of my seedlings to share :) It will have to wait until tomorrow though, because the files are on my laptop (which is currently refusing to connect to the Internet).

And lastly, there's a new layout in town. Since my html skills are pretty abysmal I am actually really pleased with how it looks. Thanks to Blogger Template Designer ;) Any feedback is of course appreciated!

Alright, I gotta get on the subway and make my way home. Cheers!
