Life on Instagram


Just before the quarter started I put together a vegetable garden in order to eat more organic foods and not have to rely on buying chemically treated market vegetables.  To be honest I have more greens than I can even consume! So apparently annoying little caterpillars have been helping me.. ):<
Also tried out the Beautiful Mess app that just launched last week. Although you have to buy packs in order to use them it's pretty fun.  If you're part of the iPhone family you should check it out in the App Store.
I went to LACMA for the first time (well apparently I went when I was small but I don't remember) for a school project and it's really neat. There were a ton of interesting exhibits there and I hope I get to come back really soon. I didn't have the time to see everything they had. It was a really nice way to spend the weekend.

The Annual Spring Garden Show

Yesterday I went on a date with my mama. 
Every spring Crystal Court of South Coast Plaza holds a garden show and this was the first time we had ever gone.  And I gotta say it was AMAZINNNGG..
There was two or three floors of just PLANTS!
We both can't even remember what had happened that day because there was just so much to see.
What seemed like every millisecond we were saying "Oh my gosh! Look at that! Over there! Look at this!" I swear I could've probably injured my neck just looking at everything.
The bottom floor had landscape designs from companies and bonsai plants, garden plants, etc.  The top floor was all exotic orchids and tropical plants.
I'm too afraid to even calculate how much we spent on plants. We walked out of the mall beaming with excitement with about four bags of just plants.

I can't believe for years I've seen advertisements for this and have not once thought about going in there. But now I think I'm definitely going to go every year. (:

This was the first thing we saw walking in and guess what? It's made from my school! I LOVE the community college I came from and I could not be more proud of my school. I wish I had joined their horticulture team for this!





I have never seen so many air plants in one place. You can bet I bought some. ;) 
Orchids on a stick! How neat is that?!
