Remember that one time I said I was going to get plants for my place? That was a NY's resolution a couple of years back. Yeah, that kind of fell through. I blame it on the fact that the window sill in my current flat is so tiny and can't possibly house plants. And I figure that my parents make up, both in terms of house plants and gardening, where I lack.  (also going through all these photos from Marseille has made me realise just how much light inspires me. I haven't taken the camera outside in weeks here, it's just so bleak all the time. Only a few more weeks till February and then I know that the sky is always clearer as it gets colder!) ( +3 - whiteness and redness ) |
The state of the garden as of last week... things are moving along so fast. I must admit I contribute in nothing to get things moving, I do not have a green thumb at all. I've written about it before but my mum and dad are amazing in making things grow on these rocks, takes hours and hours of work though.  ( +3 - have to have the right tools ) Alright, so I did do a tad of gardening, if you count planting some seeds in a bowl as gardening. ( +3 - here is the proof that I did do something ) |
Directly from the family garden...
Aug. 2nd, 2010 11:07 amI've mentioned this before but the one thing I absolutely admire about my parents' house in Marseille is their garden. It takes a hell a lot of work and dedication keeping everything alive and thriving though the summer! And of course it doesn't hurt that one can just eat strawberries and tomatoes and other stuff right from the garden. |

Yellow makes everyone happy, right?

Say hello to the newest addition to Gali's plant collection, if you can call two plants a collection... at least now it's three. I was getting tired of seeing everyone posting pictures of how lovely their gardens look and how everything is in bloom because here nothing is in bloom. Actually everything is covered in dirty snow, there is fog and it almost started raining a bit while I was out for a run. I was also going to mention the fact that the Thai shop has run out of my favourite red bean/peach/coco nut/lotus buns. On second thought though, it's not the end of the world. I'll still visit the Chinese shop today, maybe they have some, you never know. |
