rosey-flowers

 Posting hiatus! Aside from the fact that I haven't spent quality time with my camera in the past month, I have also been locked out of my account for some reason. Go figure... But I'm back now! And with new photos.

These two are from this weekend's New England Grows Gardening/Growing Convention held in Boston. I really like this plant, but I forgot the name of it! If I remember I'll update.

harvard market

 If you don't know me, then the one thing you need to know is that I LOVE FARMERS' MARKETS. Love them. I love veggies and fruits, especially organic, and I love the people that grow them. So as my roommate and I were exploring Cambridge yesterday, we came across the Harvard Square Farmer Market. We almost died out of excitement. Unfortunately I didn't have any cash on me this time, but I'll be back next week with a pocket full of cash, my reusable shopping bags, and a tummy/heart ready for fresh goodies. ..and of course my camera again.

le vent est grand

It was so windy tonight, I'm surprised these flowers didn't fly up out of the ground. I took this near Drews Lake, Maine at one of my favorite spots. I watched the wind make its way across the lake before it finally hit me. It was so powerful.

decked daisies

We picked some daisies today.

golgi flower

This flower reminds me of a golgi apparatus; it's so foldy.

rainbow daisies

100th post! Here are some colorful flowers to celebrate!

birthday beauties

What better way to celebrate my 20th birthday today than by seeing some of the most unique things this city has to offer. In no particular order of uniqueness:

Lavender ladies getting ready for a group shot.

MIT's Stata Center, being strange as always.

Even stranger from ever angle you look at it.

Quote on a fence of craziness next to my new apartment.

Peppermint striped tulips.

Oh hey, I'm a red tulip.. just being unique.

Street art in Cambridge.

Funny bird doing yoga poses in the Garden.

Ending my day with a completely normal, yet wonderfully beautiful sight of the pond in the Garden. I love my city and all of it's Mayday craziness.

furry edges

If your two lips were as fringy as these tulips, you'd be pretty weird looking.

the flowered ones

 These are my mom's favorite trees in Boston right now. She tried to get pictures this weekend while she was down visiting, but it didn't work out for her. So I decided to post these so she can see. The old man in the first one seemed pretty cool too. It took him probably an entire minute or two to walk past these two trees. Slow but determined.


ps this is the background to my new phone! get cool covers for your phone here, so it doesn't get as scratched as mine did!

blue skies, white petals

Super nice day out yesterday. The trees were loving the sun and the flowers were dancing in the wind.

bud

I don't know what kind of plant this is.. nor do I know why it is budding in the middle of winter.
