Window Shopping.

Posted on August 28, 2008 by admin2 Comments

At Magic Cabin. I saw this at Martha earlier so I decided to check it out.

I wish I can get these toys for the little boy.

I am also itching to order the 45-piece train set from a fellow N@wie. I originally planned to give it to him for Christmas, but I don’t know how long I can keep myself from ordering it.

Power of Plants.

Posted on August 22, 2008 by admin7 Comments

I was inspired by Mich to place some plants inside the house so I did a little reading about the benefits of having them in the house.

Plants can positively help your health and energy levels. And research has shown that certain species of plant can actually remove pollutants from the air. And this is according to the book The Five-Minute Healer. Not only do the plants brighten the place, it can likewise enhance your life.

The book lists the following as superplants.
~ Golden pothos {Epipremnum aureum}
~ Spider plant {Chlorophytum comosum ‘Vittatum’}
~ Heartleaf philodendron {Philodendron scandens}
~ Monstrosus cactus {Cereus peruvianus}
~ Mother-in-law’s tounge {Sanseveria trifasciata}
~ Peace lily {Spathiphyllum wallisii}
~ Goosefoot plant {Syngonium podophyllum}

Needless to say, we brought some plants inside.

These are placed on top of the piano and if I’m not mistaken these are called the mother-in-law’s tounge.

These are placed in the kitchen. I bought two more plants to join these two little ones but we haven’t transferred them in vases yet.

We have three of these placed in the corners.

And this one is placed outside, by the door.

Colorstrology.

I came across this quiz from A Matter of Memories blog and gave it a try. Visit Colorstrology, watch and read the introduction, then choose you month of birth, then day. Then answer the questions below.

My Results:

1. What is your birth month and day? December 19.
2. What is the name of your color? Lagoon.
3. What three words are given to describe you? Regal, expressive, determined.
4. Do you like you color? Why or why not? Not really.
5. What one sentence in the description MOST sounds like you? “Once you make up your mind to do something, you have the necessary stamina to accomplish your aims.”
6. What one sentence in the description brings your eyebrows together (either you do not think sounds like you or you are questioning somewhat)? “You may end up being in the public eye.”
7. According to Colorstrology, what will wearing, meditating or surrounding yourself with your color do? “Live life in a balanced and wondrous way.”
8. Does this make you want to incorporate this color more into your life? Why or why not? Lagoon is close to green right? If so, I am actually. We are bringing in plants inside the house.
