Summers here!!! How to in Small Spaces #1

So school is out! Handsome Gentleman friend has been spoiling the shit out of me. So to celebrate school being out, we went and saw the Adam Carolla Show live, with special guest Mike Rowe!!! 

Absolutely amazing!!! It was an awesome show :3 now we're getting ready for our trip to ALASKA!!!! :D holy shit!!! 

So I'm posting from my phone in my living room. I just finished planting my tomatoes that have been sitting around for about a month. So here it is-

How to grow Tomatoes in a small space

1. Buy 5 gallon plastic buckets from local hardware store

2. Drill holes in the bottom

3. Fill with potting soil from local hardware store (or costco)

4. Plant the babies!

Ill keep you guys up to date on how it goes. My squash is doing well, planted about a week and already in bloom!

Sadness, Reliefe and Being Cathartic

So today my friend/feux Aunt Joann passed away. She was well into her 90's, lived a long and full life, and was an increadibly interesting person. She had been bed ridden for months now, so in a way this is a reliefe, as she hated being bed ridden. Im not gunna get into to much here but she was a wonderful, crotchety old lady. Im just feeling sort of blank about it, not shock as we knew this was coming, but just not really grasping it? maybe Im just over whelmed with work and school and everything.

Its November, and still beautiful. The garden is still going strong, and check out below how HUGE my kale has gotten!! Also the Fababeans are shooting up! its going to be a feastful winter :)

I was shown a SUPER cool blog about painting HERE, she paints a still life a week. I think I want to start doing this. Maybe after school is out, when I wont be painting. :)

Ha! Im back! Crazy picture heavy

Sory once again for the neglect! But I have a pile of good reasons, including but not limited to-

School- which is in full force and amazing. Infact I made a paper sculpture of one of my little characters for a project, and so here he is!! :D

Kong the Robot Panda!! Super cute eh?

Gentleman Friends family visited- His mom and Step dad came out for their aniversery. I had to work most of it, but got to spend a day in Monterey with them, eating amazing food and being jolly! He really spoils the shit out of me. We visited a mission, ate Italian and hung out watching the sunset on the beach. Also at some point we wondered through a toy store and I played with dinosaurs. We also stopped by the butterfly sanctuary, but it was to dark for pictures

Hanging out with Fashion Rachel- she came and hung out for a day and a night, we havnt done that in a million years it feels like! (really 6 months or so). We got to go to Berkley for pizza, went to flower land and dug through the Halloween clearance! Yay!!

Being a Princess in Half Moon Bay- So last but NOT LEAST, Gentleman Friend has been working like a rock star at his grown up job and was rewarded with a trip to the amazing Half Moon Bay Ritz Carlton, which is a Castle on the beach. while he was busy giving a talk to some peers and mingling with corporate, I was taking baths in the GIANT tub, touring Half Moon Bay, Drinking complementery wine from the front desk and playing at the beach. For Dinner corporate treated us to an esquisit 5 star meal, I had perfect lamb (with lamb bacon OMG) with some chive fettachini. GF had braised short ribs and we both shared some wine. Then they ordered us desert, which were epic, and to boot we were gifted a $35 smore kit for taking out to the fire pit. It contained home made ginger snaps, home made marshmallows and rich 72% cocoa. 

The next morning we met up with corporate for breakfast and were treated once again! We both had the Dungeness Crab eggs benadict. It was so amazing! and once again, piles of pictures. Also while walking alone on the coast 3 pelicans flew less then 3 feet by me. I HEART pelicans, and it was such an amazing moment!!

If you made it this far, congrats!! I'll really try and be on it more, sorry guys! But not bad for 7 days :3
