Wake Your Garden Back Up To Life

Well, spring has finally come! Garden fanatics will soon be crowding outdoors for their gardens. Then, the colors would soon start blooming.

For me, it's a big yey! for the season. I do love flowers and gardens. I am highly appreciative of them. But the fact that I can't seem to have that "green thumb" effect of planting made me avoid myself being a gardener. So, I am just on that part where I become the "encouragement" for those who love to do gardening and those gifted with a "green thumb" so to speak ;).

I hope you can gain a bit of help (if not all) from these tips I will be sharing.
So, after the threat of frost has finally ended, you should begin pruning your garden, trees or shrubs around your home and start fertilizing the roots.

Start sowing your seedlings if you feel that the soil is already soft enough to crumble in your hand. The most ideal ones to grow would be pansies. They do well in sunny areas. Try primproses as well which are very ideal in shade. They can add early colors to your garden as well.

Have fun in the garden...happy spring!

Can't Wait For Summer

It has been only 5 days since Spring has started, but I think it's still gonna be a long wait before summer begins. Ahhh, how I wish I can just push the days fast forward! I have always wanted to try outdoor camping in the summer. I haven't done this yet, so I want to experience how is it to be in a campsite. It would also be good doing it with friends or family members...another way of spending a bonding time together. 

One time I was telling this to my husband, and he said we have to buy our camping materials for that. For sure, I would be packing like a freak, lol! I thought of having foam pads for camping as well. That would be one of the priorities. Of course, comfort is still an important aspect, so much so that we will be sleeping away from a real bed in the outdoor! ;) And I bet, there will be a lot of food as well. And no, I would never forget to have them.

It's always nice sharing what I would always be looking forward to. Summer come home soon...fast! ;)

My Bedroom Spring Theme!



This was the most perfect design I found for my bed sheet, a floral design for the spring! :) I got attracted mainly for the big floral design on the comforter and is really ideal for those who love flowers and colorful combinations. The fitted sheet ,blanket and the pair of pillow case that go with it are both designed with colorful small floral designs with bright color pink. 

Bought it for $30 bucks...complete set! Isn't that amazing? It's already quite cheap yet very pretty! I guess I hitted the jackpot when they were having a sale at Wal-Mart ;).

Promoting Your Business At Its Best!

Wherever you go, one of the most common things you see around you are brochures or business cards. I travel a lot and being in so many places, like hotels, restaurants, parks, tours, etc...I see brochures and flyers. So, it made me think, these are really of great help in promoting ay kind of business and/or valuable information to the public. 

If you are a business owner, just imagine yourself spending a lot of money for these, that ca possibly lead you to financial constraints some times. But you don't need to experience that when you will be smart enough to find a good company to help you produce your cheap flyers online without shelling out a lot of money, right? But it doesn't mean, being cheap is bad quality! In fact, today, you can have affordable services and yet getting a high quality product at its best! 

Raise your hand if you agree with me..lol!

Do Your Little Kids Practice Basic Etiquettes?

Today, while I was in a public restroom, there was a lady infront me and another one at my back. The line was getting long and all the rooms were occupied, so the line got a bit longer.
At the end of the line came a mother with her 2 little kids. After a few minutes, 2 doors swung open and became vacant. It was suppose to be for the lady in front of me, and then me.

The first door that became vacant was at the end, so the lady was aiming for that, while the door at the middle was where I went. It was in a matter of seconds that the younger kid went running to get the door at the end, and she went in as fast as a bullet! (Take note that they are at the end of the line!)

The lady in front of me said...."really???" Am I inline?" I was caught by surprise that the mother of the kid did NOT even reprimand her kid at the second she started running towards that door! I was already inside the room and I can hear the mother saying her very delayed "sorry". I heard her talked to the lady and was sounding apologetic, fine, she asked apology. But the fact that she could have still told her kid to stop running and let other people in front of the line go first should be a matter of concern. I wasn't sure if she told her kid the proper thing to do when waiting in line after she used the bathroom.

What the kids show reflect on how the parents' manners are! It was just ridiculous seeing like that in America, knowing that most kids are trained to practice basic and simple etiquettes like that...at least in my neighborhood that I have been for 7 years, I haven't seen any kid behave like that in public places.

Parents, watch out for your kids! The more your kids are trained to practice proper ethics during their younger years, the more they stick on to them and practice them until they get old.

If you happen to see more kids behaving improperly, nothing could come up into your mind and wonder..."where have all those proper etiquettes gone??? Isn't that alarming?

Soap Savvy Tips!! ;)

This was what I found in the shower while I was cleaning it one morning. It was a funny sight when I saw it but on the other hand, I thought this is actually one good way to save a bath soap! lol!

This is my husband's soap. Probably, many would call us weird, but I and my husband use different soap. It's just we have a different type of choosing a soap. So, I saw this on the soap dish hanging on the caddy. Perhaps, I haven't noticed it lately, until such time that he added a new soap, the older ones being on top.

By the way I am amused about how it looks. I find it attractive, and looking like a home decor! :)
