Little things I love
While I was out last night, completely on a whim, I bought this cute jar. I love the punchy red and the polka dots. Polka dots may be in the "love mosaic" this month because I have been really drawn to them lately.
Because we live in such a small space, everything has to do double-duty around here. So this jar is a new holder for my kitchen utensils. I stored the lid just in case I change my mind, and want to use it as a cookie jar. But it was the perfect size to all all my spoons and such. This way it gets to stay on the counter all the time and I get to look at it whenever I'm cooking.
I love the flowers on this mug. I've been drinking tea out of it almost everyday. I have a thing for mugs and get stuck on one when I just get it. This one is a great big size, and the colors help my mood during the recent gray days.
The grocery store was having a sale on plants, so I bought some ivy for our living room. Flowers are so hit and miss with me because sometimes I have allergic reactions to them, and sometimes I don't. The hyacinth we had was making feel nauseous when I was ill, so I asked D to take it to his new boss. I know it has a good home at his office. Instead I picked up some non-flowering plants to green up the place. I love watching them grow from small 4-inch pots like this to big hanging plants. This ivy is pretty hearty, so that should be sooner than later.
