instagram and news from the garden


i am obsessed with instagram! i know i am a little late to the game....but i love it. i knew it was an app you could use...but i never realized you could follow people on it.  its all about pictures and you can just scroll through and look at pretty things and "like" them. it so much better than twitter (i can't seem to get into that) and its more low maintenance then facebook. plus...you can make your photos look cool:) i actually took that picture of the butterfly!! here are some others i have taken on with instagram...


i went the amazing store  furbish with my friend gretchen on a recent trip to raleigh...


a client presentation...


pretty sky..


tuka...


love this stool from baker...


this is color infused flooring!! i didnt even use a filter to make it this color...not sure i would ever use it...but it is interesting.


 if  you want to join  the fun on instagram...my handle is jodieokun. (very original i know:))

in other breaking news...our vegetables are growing! here are the red peppers starting to sprout...


look at all of these carrots!


 our first cucumber!


now here is is little lesson for those of you who have never had a vegetable garden (like me)...lettuce doesnt like warm weather. i planted it too late and because of the heat it "bolted"...


seriously...that happened over night...and you cant eat it when it does that...it is too bitter. so i cut it back and we will try again... or i will plant more when the weather cools down in september. it is a very small garden...but there is something so satisfying about watching it grow...and the kids love it! i will let you know when we are actually able to eat something from it:)
