first home: garden update 6/10 -6/21

Our garden from June 10- June 21st. I know I say this every time, but our garden has grown so much! We were able to pick the cilantro and make one of my favorite hot chili sauce for chicken. Our summer lily and gladiolus have bloomed for the summer. We picked our lettuces and made salad for dinner too. Our Thai peppers, jalapeño, yellow pepper are looking beautiful. We have eight watermelons growing too! Souwan and I were able to pick the squash and zucchini and made a vegetable stir fry with them.  We have made lemonade garnished with mint for a delicious summer drink. It was very refreshing! Check back next week for another update, our garden continues to grow so fast. I can't wait to have peppers and watermelon soon!   Thanks for reading friends!

I had the pina colada paradise ice and it was perfect for the humid day. The atmosphere is very tropical and can definitely take you away for a bit.   My husband, friend and I had a day of arts and crafts. We went to the thrift store and dollar store to pick up pieces for our projects. Allison and I made a jewelry stand using plates, candle sticks, wine glasses, stickers and paint. My husband Souwan made a drink holder using old wood holder with a sand dollar and some paint. It was so much fun using our creative side to create these fun projects. Since it was summer we decided to go with a beach theme. Souwan's project is not finished yet, but i'll post a final photo when it is done.     I'm very excited to share more of our couponing pile. I have been behind on posting for the past two weeks. We are c

outfit of the day: barefoot landing

We took a trip to the beach last week and I took a couple of outfit photos. My husband and I celebrated our first anniversary. Barefoot Landing is a shopping place at the beach and has some attractions there too. My husband wanted to see the Tigers, but they were not there for viewing the morning we went. Instead we did some shopping and browsing at barefoot landing. Here is my outfit...   What I wore: yellow striped J.Crew tee//blue Old Navy shorts//thrifted purse//Francesca's Collection sunglasses//shoe show sandals     And since I have been behind on posting my outfits weekly, I decided to post a few outfits I have been wearing this week at the office. I took them with my phone because I am usually up and running out the door very early in the morning. Check it out below! If you like this, let me know and I can continue taking snaps of my outfits daily with my phone.   red macy's dress//michael kors watch (anniversary gift from Souwan) navy blue ta
