February is always a crazy month at the store with Valentine's Day. Thank goodness, because, otherwise these dark, cold, dreary, grey, rainy days of February in the Pacific Northwest can really get me down. I'm currently obsessing on grey which is probably due to the weather. Since I'm in a grey mood I thought I'd direct you to this pinterest page of all things grey.
If you're under 50 nag champa may not have the same connotations as it does for me, but it is a sandalwood based incense made famous by just about every guru and hippie burning it in the 70's. Click here to read more about the plants that go into making Nag Champa. Get yourself as many candles as you can muster and try turning off the light bulbs and having an energy fast one night a week.
And the February madness was a reminder that a girl cannot survive on sweets alone! I've been taking one day a week and cooking up a storm which give me food to eat all week long. Actually seems to be working. I'm eating better and saving money. Plus a little self love is always a good thing. And in keeping with the grey theme, click here to see images of grey food!
Plus finally these locally grown Weber's parrot tulips remind me that spring really is just around the corner. Come in and find some lovely blooms or branches to bring a little bit of spring into your house and dispel those dark grey days.
Yours in all things grey!
Jewel
