Bring some green into your space

As the weather is slowly changing for the better, I decided to bring some green indoors and I started with money plants. So I got some pruned money plant stems from my garden and all you need are some pretty glass vase or containers, some pebbles in it and water.  So for those who don’t have a green thumb, this is a pretty stress free thing to start with! No soil and all it needs are water and occasional change of water until the roots come out nicely. And then you can transfer to a pot with soil.  Another plant that is easy to manage is lucky bamboo. It just need little sunlight and water and helps with Feng Shui! So for today I am just going to work on money plant before I let more greens in….

My Edible Garden

I read somewhere “Gardening is perhaps the most common and shared experience of nature”... how true!!

In the hope for the weather to get better and the heat to drop, I started growing my own patch of edible garden. Last year my harvest was good and I remembered the distinct flavour of my home grown vegetables... very different from the ones you purchase from supermarket. Its fun growing your own vegetables, relieves stress, therapeutic and it’s a great way to spend some outdoor quality time with my daughter.

 For the time being I have planted beans, spinach, green chillie, tomatoes, lady’s finger, brinjal and basil and I hope to add more. It’s best to start small and make sure you get sun, plenty of water and good quality soil. Space is never a constraint for growing your own vegetable garden. You can grow it in your own balcony, windowsill or terrace.

Imagine picking fresh salad leaves from your garden! Are you ready to have an edible garden of your own?

A Beautiful Day......

I am devastated and sad with the recent tragedies and incidents happening around the world… it’s the beginning of a new year and our hopes of a better and peaceful world comes crashing down when we hear such horrific events…..I worry what kind of a world will my little one grow up in... nevertheless we still need to hope for a better world for the sake of our family, the society and the world….. there is no point in being bitter…. No point in giving up… it’s important for us to find and see beauty around…. Enjoy the good times with friends and family…we all have a story to tell… let our story be a good inspiration for others…. enjoy the goodness that life offers you… after all we have just one life to live.

It’s a beautiful day here in Muscat. It’s cloudy … the weather Gods are trying to decide whether to pour down…. The weather is just perfect.  I stepped out into my garden this morning to enjoy this beautiful weather … I can just sit out all day if I didn’t have any chores to complete… but today I set all that aside… taking in what the nature had to give for me… and I was grateful and happy with what I saw… my flowers were blooming… and I started clicking away with my camera.

Enjoy your day and wish you lots of happiness and peace!

Joy of Harvesting

Nothing is more satisfying than growing your own vegetables and herbs in your own garden. It’s pure and blissful joy to harvest your own organic vegetables. And I know this is not going to last long as the expected fierce summer will set in soon here in Oman…. So here I am enjoying it while it lasts…

Sharing my joy with you all…

Loving my weekend

After the beautiful rain last night the weather has changed for the better…. Its cooler….… birds chirping in glee welcoming the new season… light breeze….. Flowers bloomed and I love the beautiful colours in my garden….I pray the weather in Oman gets even more cooler and I hope we experience good winter....  After a whirlwind week there is nothing more relaxing than just getting absorbed in nature’s beauty in your own garden……

Saturday Clicks

It’s a beautiful Saturday morning and I started clicking away in my garden. And that one hour in my garden was so blissful, surrounded by flowers, plants, trees and the constant chirping of birds. Grateful for this small time with nature.... away from the chaotic routine. And I had to share these pictures with you to kick start your day. Have a nice day everyone!!
