Mommon (Garden Version)

I love Asian art. I think I got it from my Grandma. Although she passed on much of her Asian art to me when she died, I have added a few of my own pieces along the way.

So now the truth is out. I doubt there are a lot of other eMoms out there that would share my love of Mommon, the Buddha of Comfort and Joy. But “eMom” isn’t just a tech savvy knickname - it also stands for Eccentric Mom - of which I proudly am! :)

Dutch Iris - Mixed  

I love flowers in my yard. I love plants in my home. I’m just not very good at keeping them alive though… I have a bit of a brown thumb.

But with perrenials, I have found a few ways to actually add color (BESIDES brown!) to my yard - and the plants actually live! And they are SO low maintenance that a busy entreprenurial mom can actually have her plants and eat them too - oh, wait, that’s cake

Anyway, since Iris are my favorites, I want to plant them this fall so I can enjoy them in the spring. And I promise not to eat them!

To Receive Exciting Things August 14, 2006

When we bought our home, we bought a big fixer-upper. Lots of work. Lots of time. We love the house, but the previous owner left behind some really ugly things. Like a rusty, ugly mailbox with bad country bird artwork painted on the side. Really bad.

I want a beautiful mailbox, one that welcomes all of my mail in style. What I would really like is one that can’t receive bills… but until then, I’ll settle for just the beautiful part.
