Day 6: Over the River and through the 'Hood

To Grandmother's house I go!

So, every Thursday after work, I go to my grandmother's house for some lunch/dinner and good conversation. I love that lady!

Day 5: Movie Night

Watched the Hunger Games and discussed all the things that intrigued, amused, and confused us.

My main question is: Why would the careers ever trust Peeta, when he's banking on all of Panem believing that he's head-over-heels for Katniss?

Oh well, good night, and may the odds be ever in your favor.

Day 4: Summer Bounty

Ah, Fresh fruit on a hot summer day! I recently bought this pineapple corer and have been itching to use it for some days now. My hubby finally bought me a pinapple and I couldn't be happier. Yeah, doesn't take much to please me.

Day 3: Birthday Blooms

 I got these flowers for my mom, not knowing they were the official flower for August. Here's what "1st in flowers" has to say:

The gladiolus is the birth month flower of August, bringing luck to all births in August. Symbolically this flower signifies remembrance, infatuation, and strength of character. Its name comes from Latin's "gladius" meaning "sword" for its sword shaped leaves.

 Happy Birthday Mom!

Day 2: A Trip to the Moon

Stargazing and looking to the moon. "One small step for man..."

Day 1: A message from a loved one

I wanted to start a blog where I post one picture a day. I really don't know how well I will be able to keep up with it-it's pretty ambitious and I'm a known slacker- but I will do my best.  My thoughts were to just put a picture about things that stood out around me in everyday life and see how that adds up in a year.

So, here's the first picture: A small message written out for me by my 7 year-old niece on her DS:

"tia nata isint' jost mai tia shis may frend"

<3 It's gunna be pretty hard to top that one <3
