David and Pri

Well, I made 2 videos today (one in Portuguese and one in English), showing a little bit of our house outside – and focusing on the little flowers popping out everywhere, and some of our work with the Hoosier Cabinet.

Bom, hoje fiz 2 videos pra voces (um em portugues e outro em ingles) mostrando um pouco da nossa casinha do lado de fora, as flores coloridas se multiplicando por todo lado, e o David pintando parte das portas do nosso movel de cozinha (que nao sabemos ainda onde vamos colocar). Divirtam-se!

After moving out from my studio apartment (now I’m at David’s house), I finally had time to do the requested full list of plants of the new house!

Depois de me mudar do estudio pra casa do David, encontrei tempo pra escrever a tao requisitada lista de plantas e flores da nova casa. Nao vou traduzir pra portugues pois imagno que vcs possam presumir, ou mesmo me perguntar o que vcs tiverem duvida. 

This is the list that Fiona helped us to make with the help of the ex-owner of the new house: (the numbers will eventually lead to the location, when I take some time to make the photoshop green map)

Well, for now, I’m researching deer resistant plants and talking with Cheri and Fiona about plants that can work in the new house. And I bought in the Farmers Market this beautiful flower. Which I found out to be an Impatiens!! (David said they are pretty easy to let grow).

Anyway…. I’ll plant it n a bigger pot at some point this week.

Happy Spring for everyone!
