Last weekend in photos


Here's another weekend in photos!  Lots of fun things happened including taking care of these babies:



I decided this year to try and grow veggies because for one they can be very expensive and two because they just taste better when they're home grown.  Also, it's fun because it's a bit of a challenge and I know I'll feel satisfied if it actually works out.  Seed to fruit!

Here are some of the sprouts before I transplanted them to a raised bed in the yard (more pictures later).  It took a long time to decide what to grow but I ended up with cucumber, long purple beans, sugar snap peas, zebra tomatoes (!), and yellow peach tomatoes.  Also bought some starter plants this weekend (bell peppers, asparagus, and a blueberry bush).  I'll let you know how they're coming along for sure.

More after the jump...

Snow day! and an online mag



AHHHH. 14 inches of snow has hit New York and here's the view outside my window. Luckily for me, that means no work today and I had time to read this wonderful online magazine that I want to tell you about:

Matchbook Magazine is a newly launched online mag, totally free and totally awesome. Here's a feature of the best 50 wardrobe staples. I'd have to agree with them. Also what sold me on the mag was that they did a feature on Rifle Paper Co, a super cute stationary company run by a hip Floridian couple. Definitely check this magazine out and I guarantee you'll like it!
