day 14


day 14.  i have made some newspaper pots.  i shall fill them with lovely awesome organic potting soil.  i made the pots from pages of the salt lake city weekly 4th of july edition.  this one has a picture of
 my neighbor and friend, nick james.  he is an awesome d.j. as well as a hairstylist.  this pot features a blurb about him retiring from d.j.-ing.  cute.

we have also begun to get a few true leaves on the seedlings!  exciting!  in a few months we will be eating sweet juicy lambkin melons.

the soil i bought today for the newspaper pots is awesome.  it has bird poop and worm trailings in it.  real organic treats!  

i made the yummiest human treat the other night!  tequila-soaked watermelon!  it was a martha stewart recipe.  damn, i love that ol' girl.  she loves her liquor.  it's watermelon, soaked in a solution of tequila, triple sec & simple syrup.  then you chill it, squeeze limes over it, and sprinkle it with sea salt.  yum!  and in the same issue of martha stewart she tells you about her favorite brand of sea salt.  it's maldon sea salt from england.  and it really is delicious, folks.  flaky and mild.  it's some good stuff.

  1. i love kitsch! tres brilliant to do your newpaper pots from city weekly as opposed to any dry rag. they're so charming and cute.

    though it could feel... right, somehow, to put shit and dirt in the deseret news.
