my favorite dinosaur is the stegosaurus. always has been. in fifth grade, i wrote a series of short stories about a girl who used a time machine to go back to the time of the dinosaurs, where she befriended a stegosaurus that she named steve. eventually they both went back to the present, where hilarity and mayhem ensued. so, when we went to the natural history museum in new york, that was one of my top priorities to see.

and so, when today's cyanide and happiness comic was about a stegosaurus, i had to post it.

also, i seem to have gone through all of february without posting anything. oops.

Current Mood: full

way back a month ago, there was valentine's day. we went to the beach, got some stuff from whole foods for dinner, and i made us a feast. rosemary garlic rack of lamb, baked mashed potato dollops, garlic parmesan green beans, and steamed carrots. possibly the best meal i've ever made. it was a very nice, laid-back day.

Current Mood: good

the weather is starting to get nice here in houston, so i spent the last couple of weekends working on our patio. i planted herbs and strawberries and got a new palm tree (named mo) and a hibiscus. the herbs have started to poke through in the last week or so and now they're growing really quickly! i'm excited for them to get big enough for me to actually use. i'm going to take more pics this weekend of the strawberries and herbs. they've grown quite a bit in a week. i have a couple of panoramas but my stitching program was having issues so some of the lines aren't quite right. also, not shown is a small grill, which i use frequently, and a small table. oh, and a windchime with a hummingbird on it, a tribute to my awesome grandma.

strawberries!

herbs! this is thyme! when they get bigger, they'll come out of their tiny pots and go into a long rectangular pot, at which point i can replant the tiny pots with more seeds. fun!
