more monkey grass

after i took pictures of my monkey grass last week,

i cut some of the flowers and brought them inside to monkey around with (sorry, i couldn't help the play on words).

these same flowers have lasted pretty well, and just started to drop petals today.






















i hope you all have a wonderful week...

love,

E



my friend Z is having another Project Genesis blog party on wednesday.

this is a cool party, where you share something ...something that can make a change...it doesn't have to be monumental...just little tips or tricks to help the environment...god knows we need some

CHANGE.

won't you join Z and me?

I never thought about cutting the monkey grass blooms and using them inside. One of those "Duh" things I guess.
Have a great week.

Thank you for the mention. You are such a true pal.

Goodness gracious but those are lovely photos, and I popped in just in time for my man Cat. I still love those tunes and I instantly transported back to some pretty interesting memories....hmmmm?

think I'll pour some of my favorite Gypsy and reminisce....his name was....

Popping over to your blog is always as refreshing as a walk in the park during a busy day. I'm always so happy to be here. x

Absolutely gorgeous photos, Erin. I am really, really wanting to visit your garden! And I just love your blog to pieces. I normally hate music on blogs but Cat started playing and my husband perked up so we both had a listen. Then he looked over my shoulder at your sidebar photos and was truly impressed (he's a very fine photographer himself). Thanks for giving us a dose of beauty. xo – g
