A ‘nursery on wheels’ came past my house a month or two ago. They had fruit trees, flowers and just everything I loved. I tried to curb my enthusiasm and settled on only getting a fig tree and a bunch of daisies.

The daisies found a place at my front door where a family of swallows made a nest with mud and moved in. They leave me little ‘gifts’ by the front door! So i thought the pot with daisies would help this dilemma. It hasn’t quite worked but the daisies looks lovely.

I haven’t found a perfect spot for my fig tree yet. I am still contemplating where to put her and where she will be the happiest. She is still standing by my back door and she hasnt found her permanent home yet (in the soil)!! I feel like it is such a commitment and I have to get it right. Even though she only has a few leaves, she is bearing fruit!! 🤍 I am so proud of her. Just love.

Selfies + Christmas trees. I can’t even remembe

Selfies + Christmas trees.

I can’t even remember the last time I had a Christmas tree. 🎄 This year I had an overwhelming desire to get one! It is a bit early, I know. But the tree and lights are making me so happy.
