Gardening Updates- Goodbye Carrot top & Green Onions, Hello Chia & Amaranth!

Wow, it's been a while since I was able to blog about the progress of my indoor plants (or anything, actually, there is so much that I need to blog!), the last picture was on 10/2/12, I believe.

10.4.2012
Even though the onions had been doing so well only a day before, the one of the left had wilted, so I had to throw it out.  After this, I transplanted all of them into soil, moved the avocado outside into a larger planter, and planted some of the organic chia seeds (that I've been occasionally adding to my food for its awesome health benefits) from an awesome seller on Etsy, MoonlightMicroFarm (who threw in some oregano seeds as a freebie with my order) !
 ==================================
10.7.2012
10.8.2012
10.10.12
10.10.12
10.12.12- A very wilted green onion...
10.12.12 - The carrot top was rotten, so I had to dig it out
10.12.12
10.16.12- Super hot days + forgetting to water them  >.<
10.16.12 - I was upset to see that something had broken off a leaf
(visible on the left)
 ==================================
After stumbling upon articles about how amazinggg amaranth is, I decided to order some organic burgundy amaranth seeds from EarthCareSeeds 
on Etsy, and not only were they organic, a better price than on Ebay sellers, and quickly shipped, but they also included a freebie, Kale seeds.  YAY!  I was so happy that I recommended them to my friend, who also purchased the listing from them!

Wasn't super sure how to plant them, but the instructions said that they could be started indoors, so
I planted a couple seeds on 10.18.12
10.23.12 -  They sprouted!!

Mini post- Halloween Happy Street Update

Ahhhhhhh~~!! I've been really happy with the last Happy Street update that added new shops and more storyline quests, but this Halloween update blew me away!! ☆*:.。. o(≧▽≦)o .。.:*☆

The fortune wheel got big prize boosts, and shops now sell items that the villagers can hold- mini bouquets from the flower, cotton candy from the candy shop, various masks from the mask shop, comic books from the comic store, and mini gameboys from the toy shop !! And that's only what I've seen so far, I know that there's more that was listed, I'm having so much fun watching the villagers closely and discovering new items and things!
(((o(*゚▽゚*)o)))

HAPPY STREET 大好き!!! <3 <3

Toma Diaries- First Time Outside!

10/11/12:

Today was a busy day! For most of it, I let Toma rest while I was working and reading.



Around 5:30 pm, though, I woke him up and took him outside for the first time! At first he looked intimidated, then he started exploring.(^ω^)




After he seemed to relax outside, I put him on my shoulder and went on my short evening walk. I stopped along the way to let him inspect some beautiful plumerias.



When we came back home, he sat on the fence for a while, taking in the cool tradewinds, ahhh!~


Then we went back to my room and he lay down reflectively and rested on my bed for a while.



After dinner, he joined me outside to do some reading while basking in the last light of the peaceful and gorgeous evening. (^ν^)

Mini post- Able to exercise again!

After a while of not being able to go on my walks (or go very far even if I did), I walked further than I ever have for a long while, and I even jogged halfway going there!

It was a hot, humid, super voggy day, but thank goodness for peculiar west south-west breezes!

Only Half Dead

Lo and behold, this blog (and me) is not dead!  You were probably thinking of rifling through my pockets, weren't you?  Sorry to disappoint!  I'm only half-dead!

Miracle Max: He probably owes you money huh? I'll ask him.
Inigo Montoya: He's dead. He can't talk.
Miracle Max: Whoo-hoo-hoo, look who knows so much. It just so happens that your friend here is only MOSTLY dead. There's a big difference between mostly dead and all dead. Mostly dead is slightly alive. With all dead, well, with all dead there's usually only one thing you can do.
Inigo Montoya: What's that?
Miracle Max: Go through his clothes and look for loose change.

★★★★★★★★★★★★★ PRP ★★★★★★★

My health has been bad.  Very bad.  Worse than my usual bad.  Almost as bad as my finances.  Which may or may not actually be in a better state than my health, actually.  Hm.  So anyway.  In an attempt to help myself get better or be able to afford to buy the somewhat pricy health food, herbs, and supplements that I want to try, I've been putting a lot of time and effort into listing my inventory online, on eBay and Etsy alike.  I will appreciate all the support and business that I can get!  So thank you to my friends and customers for helping to keep me alive! ; o ;

★★★★★★★★★★★★★ deviantART ★★★★★★★ 

OH MY GOODNESS.  I am so, so, so stoked to have been featured in deviantArt's DELVE webzine, I never even knew that such things existed!  They were kind enough to include my Angry Birds Space amigurumi fanart plush on page 5, their themes were Space and Happiness, and though an unusual combo, the result is an amazzzzing issue!  Check it out~!


★★★★★★★★★★★★★ DIY PROJECTS★★★★★★★

So.  Anyone who pays even the slightest bit of attention to my posts on Facebook would be able to tell that I've been addicted to Pinterest.  My boards (especially my DIY and Craft inspiration boards) have grown exponentially since I've joined.  I can't answer texts from even my beloved boyfriend until I've finished scrolling to the bottom of a category (unless the iPod app crashes).  We truly are in the age of DIY and crowdsource sharing!  I love sites like Pinterest because the best of the internet is all in one place, in a visual form that I can skim through, and there's always new things to see! That's how I discovered Brit + Co.

Speaking of nifty blogs, my friend recently showed me a charming one, The Burlap Bag, which inspired me to give my lone avocado seed in my windowsill some friends!  Now I have a very charming lineup, and I change their water every other day.  Here is the progress, the green onions and carrot flourished overnight (though, to be fair, the carrot was already sort of growing when I took it out of the bag)!  I was stunned!
