I love spending time in my new kitchen. I thing it's absolutely darling. Tiny, quaint, just the right size for me and my new roommates. I love them. One girl who is only living with us this summer is a little odd but her "favorite chore" is doing the dishes. And sometimes mine. Pretty neat compared to last years batch of lazys.
I have this special place in my heart for mason jars. I think its because my parents and I used to can pickles and peppers in mason jars for a few summers when I was a teen (not long ago honestly haha). But now I find myself not being able to throw away a single jar and instead keeping fresh fruit in them. They just seem so much more aesthetically appealing than plastic ware. I ate the rest of my strawberries for the week and cleaned up these blackberries yesterday to put in my fruit jar.
I'll be starting a garden at some point this summer when I have more money. For now however my garden consists of these two tomato plants from John and this teeny pot of basil sprouting on my kitchen windowsill.
We also have a TON of eggplants sprouting on another window. I would like to grow a few more things. I don't need much honestly. My friend John is growing a bunch of veggies on the other side of town too and we decided to trade. I'm ready to dig my fingers into some dirt but first we need to clean up the poison oak that is apparently running all throughout our yard. Great.
And finally I must share this little piece of the internet I have stumbled upon. The other night I found this band, The Mural and the Mint and then found that they were giving away a free download of their album. They are a completely legit band that I have fallen in love with. Especially the song "I Never Knew." Check it out.
