Ahhh the end of spring is nearing. Don't get me wrong, I am looking forward to summer but there is just something so magical about spring. Also I'm not gonna lie...when you live in southern california the beginning of summer is basically a prolonged spring. I've been checking the weather back home (ok actually i have as many cities as allowed in the iphone weather app to check on. i'm a strangely curious person. a few on my list: Alvin, TX (my hometown), Big Sur, New York City, Sleepy Hollow, Athens Greece, San Francisco and more) and the temp has been in the 90's! Gah! I think its hot when it hits 77 here. Pathetic. But hey, you get spoiled and quickly forget how terrible weather can be elsewhere.
So I'm kind of sad because today when I was watering my container plants I noticed they were not doing so well. For example I swear it looks like there is mold growing in my beets. WHYYY. Anyway. I think they may not be getting enough sunlight. Hmm.
OH! I'm so excited and proud of myself. Today when I was stopping to get coffee I parked right in front of a children's boutique, which I have so many times before. I have always wanted to go inside and talk to the owner about selling my hair clips but I just never could quite build up the courage. It just seems so audacious. Like "Hey! Look at this! Sell it please!?" haha. But it was really easy and comfortable. I just kind of asked her about how the process would be to sell things in her shop and then I pulled out some of my business cards from Moo.com that have photos of my products on the back (awesome idea). Her daughter was there too and she LOVED them. So that was good. Anyway so get this....next Wednesday I am bringing in my collection for consignment selction!!!! WOoohoooo. Now I feel confident enough to take my things to other places for consignment consideration. Way cool. Etsy is just way hard. Too many sellers on there to stand out.
I roasted large chunks of red, green, yellow and orange bell peppers for dinner and it was SO yummy. I need to do that more often. Just thought I'd share that piece of information. Not sure why. It may be because of the iced espresso I'm sipping on. Makes me "mouthy" as husband lovingly refers to it.
I will now leave you with a piece of spring. My spring flower patch hair clip to be exact. Enjoy!
So cheery and springish ;)
