Mmm... lunch.

Yesterday's lunch, delicious and easy, thank you asian supermarket! So good I made it again today! Udon noodles, fish balls and fried crab flavoured nuggets. Yummm!

Butt Plants!

This is my first attempt at cultivating butt plants, aka "Lithops". Google it and you'll see why I call them butt plants. See the tiny green dots in the picture? Success!

Latest Plant Update!

Remember the pictures a while back of the little bulges on my dracaena? Look how big they are now!:


That plant is getting new growth all over the place!:




I've also rearranged a lot because I've gotten quite a few new plants lately, as well as gotten rid of a few that weren't doing well. Here's the current plant table by the fish tank. My christmas poinsettia is still alive!


I had to cut down a big piece of my palm tree, it suddenly got all dry and died off. Hm...


A polka dot plant, the tiniest agave ever, a sweet smelling hyacinth and some butt plant seedlings! More on those later...




That's all for now on the plant front!

Random Plant Thing

Remeber the dracaena I chopped down because it got cold damaged? There's signs of life!


I was doing the daily misting and noticed these two new sprouts on the end of one of the stalks! Also...


Not the best picture, but you can tell that there is somethin' brewin' under that bark! I think we are due for another sprout! There's also this...


There was a small closed spike of leaves that survived the big chop because it was only partially damaged and I wanted to see if it would open up. Well all of a sudden one morning it looks like it exploded! I'm really happy one original leaf cluster survived!

That's all for now, I will be doing a big update soon because tonight I repotted and re-arranged some of the plants and the plant area is looking really snazzy!

P for Parrot Update #2

Here's last night's progress. There are a lot of unfinished crosses because sometimes I feel like doing the counting and stitching new areas and other times I like to do a bit more mindless stitching (like when watching TV) so if the areas are already mapped out I can just go back and finish the crosses then.

P for Parrot Update #1



I'm making the first one in the picture, "P is for Parrot". Here's what I have so far as of last night:
