Space Needle Cocktail Rings and Teeny Tiny Plants
I made a ring! It's my first one, and the first time I got to use my new solder kit! I'm pretty fond of the ring. My friend Erin thinks it looks like the Space Needle, I guess I can see that. It actually is a drawer pull, and one of my favorite pieces. I think it looks tough, but still feminine. And talk about a cocktail ring, which bigger is always better, so Ta-Dah!
Speaking of big, let's talk about small (nice
transition, right). Today I was in the search of a mint plant. Not spearmint, chocolate mint, lemon mint, cat mint (it's real), no just mint. This quest was brought about due to my desire to make mojitos this summer. I thought, since mint is kind of expensive at the store, why not grow it myself? Come to find out regular mint, is incredibly hard to find. However, on my way home from Fred Meyer, who did not have it, I drove by Emerald City Gardens, my new favorite local nursery. They had mint, were extremely friendly, and the reason for this post, sold the teeny, tiniest plants. Now I'm not usually suckered in by "register things," but super tiny, tiny plants? Yes, please!! I was told this is what Emerald City makes when they are bored. Well, I for one appreciate their boredom!
Until next time.....
