Thankful Monday

My weekend went by so quickly, again. I have been thinking of something for a hobby or something to work on every weekend. I was even thinking about enrolling in craft lessons but considering all the expenses, I felt like it’s too much.

You know, when my husband had that dating business before he was kind of confused with most of the Filipinas about what their hobbies are. All have the same answers which is cleaning, reading pocketbooks, dancing, singing and cleaning. Now, I realized our hobbies aren’t that bad at all. At least, we don’t spend money and there’s nothing to spend, lol!

Anyway, I dragged my husband around last Friday night looking for some bathroom accessories. Unluckily, I didn’t find what I’m looking for. On Saturday, we went to this high-end gardens and landscaping place in Newport Beach. A very impressive place! All the flowers and even the pine trees are perfectly trimmed! They have little boutiques full of fresh flowers beautifully scattered all over.



It’s really beautiful and so are the prices, lol! It’s where rich people shops, I guess and so it doesn’t matter. There are few accents that I really liked but the prices are unreasonable. I ended up buying orchids, moss and pot. It was around 70 bucks plus, I have yet to assemble it. At least, I had the pleasure of doing things and I love the result:
It’s perfect in the bathroom (guest’s room). Now that I had leftover moss, I was thinking of doing some more flower arrangements for the kitchen, for the other 2 bathrooms and maybe for the bedroom too. Hmm, it might look boring having all the unreal flowers everywhere in the house.

Yes, flower arrangement can be a stimulating hobby, one that caters to your artistic talents. What a beautiful gazebo and what gorgeous flowers you photographed for this post. I love gazebo and a garden full of flowers. It's like being in the garden of Eden. Thanks for the post. God bless you always.
