Aster Flower Around the House

. Wednesday, August 26, 2009

Aster is by far, my favourite of the five packet of flower seeds hubby picked up and
planted on our plot of garden few months ago. Although the packet came with
photo of pink coloured crysanthemum looking flowers, the real thing was far better.
It had not only the pink coloured bloom as printed on the cover, I was surprise to find white,
baby pink and purple hue once popping up a few weeks ago. They are, according to MIL, very long
lasting too and could last all the way till October :-) Nice.

I plucked some Aster a while ago and tried finding them a nice spot.
Can you decide which is a good corner for the Aster?

I have also included some snapshots of my personal favourite space around the house :-)

For example ... my Inspiration Corner, and another Board which I had wrapped up but have no idea what to do with it yet. There´s also a little box hidden beside the office room sofa where I keep my knick knacks in jar bottles.

Also, I found a Year 2010 calendar in the shop today but without photos on! Perfect. Thinking of customising them as gifts soon! Gosh .. how time flies. The calendars are out already! Next to the calendar is a 30 year old French Cookbook which Mama gave me last week. My god ... this must be the oldest cookbook I have ever owned. There is a possibility that the recipe here can anytime be more authentic than Julia Child´s. No?

I had lunch outside today with a fellow ex school mate to discuss about some secret project. It was a simple Fried Salmon lunch in a local Imbiss, nothing spectacular but the salad that came with it was not good.

Here´s to more corners around that house where the Aster´s trying to find a comfortable spot on. The top is taken on my side of the computer table. Left photo is of an old sideboard located at the entrance of our home. The one on the right was taken in our bedroom. Spot Imbi!

Another favourite spot in the house is our sliding bar table in our kitchen. Before I arrive, this high table use to be empty. But it is now filled with my cookbook stand, a water jug, three bottles of Italian Oils, and cake stand which I double as fruit and vegetable platter. Haha. And right now, Jamie Oliver is claiming its limelight!

Well .. that´s about it. Will show more in the future. Have a nice day ahead everyone :-)
