What is this?! Two blogs in one week!? Deep.
So life is full of highs and lows, something bad happens, but then something good happens and it's counteracted, and vice versa. It's the same in our flat, usually when Josh adds something weird i.e a rabbit skull (low), and then I add something to balance it out i.e a candle (high). This time, its something a bit closer to heart - our herb table is dying :(
I was so proud when we purchased our herbs a mere two weeks ago - finally we were going to have some foliage in our house, we were on our way to becoming gardening extraordinaires! Unfortunately, after only a week we noticed our coriander was suffering, and not even discretely - it had dramatically sprawled itself over the table - clearly the herbs were greener on the other side. This was swiftly followed by the basil - a refreshing burst of green in amongst the less exciting herbs - until a couple of days ago when it followed in the footsteps of the star-crossed coriander.
They are literally dropping like flies. Low point.
But this is where I get to the peak - we have a new and exciting addition to our flat which counteracts the sadness of the passing herbs - we have windowsill flowers! (This is the point where I realise how dull my life must sound to everyone else)
We are now the proud owners of actual proper outdoor flowers, and they're alive! Plus they're going to grow up to be daffodils and hyancinths, how flipping pretty and Spring-y is that?! The only thing I'm sad about is that they haven't got their flowers yet so I can't show you an impressive picture of how awesome they look, but don't fear, I will in good time.
So that's my lesson for the week, you've got to take the highs with the lows, and when all else fails, make your own highs! Not in a weird way, buy yourself some flowers or something.
