Big Bang Planting

Calibrachoa is one of my favorites for hanging pots and window boxes because it blooms heavily all summer and loves the sun. 

                The double blooms of the new Mini Famous  series are real scene-stealers.

Calibrachoas are vigorous, fast growing annuals that feature hundreds of vividly colored small Petunia like flowers that bloom from spring to first frost. Unlike regular Petunias, Calibrachoa is self cleaning, meaning that it sheds it’s spent flowers and replaces them with new ones. In early fall, calibrachoas will continue to perform. They like the cool weather of fall as much as the warm weather of summer. They can also withstand a frost and are hardy to approximately 28 degrees.

Drunken Potatos

Drunken Potatoes

My daughter rated them as the yummiest potatoes ever and I decided to share the recipe with you. I call them drunken potatoes, because I use cheap whisky to cook them.

It all starts with 9 medium size potatoes, 3-4 steams of green onion and one bulb of onion. Peal the skin of the potatoes. I always do that, but they are some types of potatoes where you could skip that step.
Cut them on a little pieces.

Add 1tbsp whisky

 and 1 cup of water,1 tbsp Salt, 1tbsp Lemon Pepper Seasoning, 1 tbsp Chili Red Pepper Powder, and 1 tbsp Montreal Steak Seasoning,

3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil.

Mix all the things together.

Cover with aluminum foil and put it in the oven for 21 min. Uncover and again leave it in the oven for more 30 min. you will see the results in approximately 40 min.

Bye for now. I am going to check on my drunken potatoes.

Designing with decorative objects

Designing with decorative objects

Decorative objects and collections, whether of red glass or butterflies, porcelain figurines or photographs, give a house charm and distinctive character. Such objects of affection- those pieces you love- should hold a permanent place in a room's design.

Placing a few objects on a tabletop is attractive, but don't go overboard and fill every surface in a room. Creating a tabletop of objects requires some experimentation. When it comes to showcasing objects, display lightning is a critical consideration.

What matters most: Objects you care about stand on their own, and do not have to "match" the style of the room they are in. Any quality piece instantly adds interest to a room because of its shape, color and detail- and because it makes the room uniquely your own.
