well, i´m not that into Fall

not yet

so i won´t join the praise of this dooming glorious season

to me it smells rotten

brings the cold (and cold related pains - maybe i need to move to an other climate)
the eternal fog in those areas near a big river is literally depressing
and always worse than expected - it hits me every time

and i can only apprechiate the morbide side o f it

to me sunflowers are only bearable in their dying state

also got some strawflowers at the farmers market

(judging by the looks the lady who sold them gave me, 

those are only supposed to be bought by the elderly)

put them in an odd ice cream vessel from ZIERRAT AND GOLD

and might use them in a couple of months in a flower arrangement for my grandmothers grave

(last time at the hardwear store i found some hot glued on top of some cacti

so i might do something similar - put them onto some bare branches)

to drive all the other ambitious grave decorators mad

joyous times

i guess it´s okay with my grandmother

she used to have tea with rum after her visit to the graveyard on All Saints Day

probably not only due to the cold weather

"dear lord, the things i´ve seen..."

.

but i made a FALL GREETING CARD for you after all

and started putting all those bulbs in the soil

got best quality ones from the Netherlands

they seem to burst with life any minute

and those grapes are really beautiful - grown in our tiny vinyard

.

went to a excellent exhibiton of HEINZ BRAUN

and i guess my thoughts had nothing to do with the shown work

but i had to urge to create an outlet for the crazy, the unfiltered, not so pretty

do stuff that doesn´t need to be representable
my own delicious secret

HUMANS OF NEW YORK 

an article on the sadness of gen-y on MAN REPELLER
(guess we should try to achive our personal best instead of the over all best)

WHY INSTAGRAM IS DEPRESSING

(used to get in a bad mood looking at perfect online lifes

even before joining facebook and the blogging world

when i do so now i sometimes reach out to those who seemingly have it all

and tell them how impressed i am

always turns out they´re very human after all (and mostly very nice))

.

a nice APRON
awesome HYDRO TERRARIUMS

.

oh, in case someone wants some geranium cuttings

i´m cutting down all of my old plants and would be happy to send some your way
