It's all about the color

A few months ago, my mom told me I should put more colors in my house, more bright, happy colors. My house is full of neutral colors such as burgundies, browns, beige's...very safe colors and according to my mom boring, and I think she is right. So I have been thinking and I have been looking a different color palettes, but nothing seems right. Today I found an article in Martha Stewart's blog about their magazine's new May issue and it looks like it is all about the color, just what I was looking for!
You can see more about it at The Martha Blog.






The magazine will be on newsstands Monday, May 12th

Indian Food

I've been craving Indian food for quite some time, and unfortunately for me, I don't know of many Indian restaurants around here. So today I decided to make my own, and it turned out better than I thought. I've got a great recipe for Chana Masala here and a recipe for Naan Bread here and it is delicious!

Chana Masala is basically a stew of garbanzo beans with tomatoes and lots of spices. I was gonna make some white rice to go with it but I forgot.

My Cat....

I wish I could just relax, even just for a day, the way you do.

I wish I could just sit by the window, under the sun and just relax!

New trees

I went to Costco yesterday just to get olive oil and peanut butter and came home with two new trees for my patio. I am very excited because they are ultra-dwarf, witch I guess it means they won't grow too much but they will still produce lots of fruits just like a normal size tree. I was very surprise at the big selection they had, and it took me a good 20 minutes to decide which two I will take home. They had cherries, a few different kinds of apples, nectarines, peaches, a few different kinds of pears and apricots.

At the end I got the Nectarines and the Bartlett Pear.
