Another adventure with art


hubby and i went to lacma over the weekend, our first time! and it was pretty cool. they were having art walk so we got in for ree and roamed around for half the day.






below are some of my favorite pieces.




where's alice?




the elevator doors opened and a small light on each elevator illuminated the floor number














i would take them home











Mmmmmm cornflakes.....











for the patriot in you













cool, but sometimes i don't get modern art.












i had hubby point to his home country/flag. but he wouldn't let me put that pic up.

garden update!


well with the weather being warm and all, i decided it was time to get my gardening gloves out
every year i do an herb garden. it lasts for a few weeks and then, of course, i forget to water it and it slowly dies a horrible death

but not this year!
no no no no no!

i am going to water this sucker!
we've got basil, rosemary, cilantro and curled parlsey! everything a growing bunny needs


also, the orange tree is looking mighty fine! and by fine i mean not producing fruit but those leaves are greeeeen and lush. so baby steps orange tree! baby steps.


the lemon tree on the other hand has gone bonkers.

not only has it shot up like a ... well, tree... but it also has...

.....

...

..

wait for it....

...



LEMONS!
more than one!!


and i bought some cacti that i hope will grow and make me feel better about myself and how i can take care of things.
