no matter how big or small my moms backyard is she always has flowers (roses, sunflowers, hydrangeas etc you name it!) flower remind me of her and she reminds me of home (Moved a lot growing up so nothing was really that permanent except her and my siblings)

So bright! And they take me back to childhood when my mom had potted gerberas in the backyard.

they’re a flower that was always around growing up. in my mom’s pretty vases, my neighbours’ flower patches. my great-grandparents were from the netherlands and they handmade these sweet little wooden tulip yard stakes that are now split up across my extended family. whenever i go to visit my Oma or my aunts i see a couple of them in their gardens and it makes me smile. they feel very familiar to me. i also love how they look open! from what i’ve seen it’s not the most popular way to display them, but one of my favourite parts of buying a bunch of closed tulips is watching them slowly open and seeing the stamens inside.

I personally love keeping flowers in my kitchen and on the vanity in my room. I either grow some that make good cut flowers like zinnia, sunflowers, daisies, gladiolus, mums or I get whatever color flowers at the grocery store I’m feeling. Or a personal favorite is buying the pots of hyacinth bulbs before they bloom, one of my favorite smells in the world, and then I plant the bulbs in my garden after the flowers have faded so I have more next spring. Flowers in home = instant happiness boost. (Pro tip: chrysanthemums and carnations last SO long in vases as long as you change the water and trim the ends every couple days.)

The internet is making my brain rot!!! Lately, I've been very mindful of my purchases and how I can minimize my consumptions as an individual. I like my wired headphones. I like the running shoes I've had for years. And I love my 2004 Honda CRV. Learning to be happy with the things I have.
