Cacti blooming indoors Fall & winter garden

Throughout these last couple of months, my cacti have been blooming pink, red and white flowers. It is uplifting to see blooming, bright, and unique flowers in the dreary, drab, and gray months.

Here they were a few days before getting ready to bloom.

Obviously the cacti are the stars of this blog post. But I'll also share with you some pictures of the other houseplants in all of their lushness, and pictures of some of my little adventures I went on in the last few weeks...

As I was traveling for work, we got to peak inside the Old Mason County hospital. Which you can additional photos here on my Art blog.

Here are more photos of the architecture in Maysville, Kentucky. I can't wait to go back there and actually enjoy it next time without than it being a work trip. 

Fuether down South feom Maysville is yhe town of Wayland, Kentucky. Below are pictures of Floyd County's community center and the old Floyd County high school.

I also traveled to Tennnessee for work, and took a few snaps along my walks...

Other than going on little adventures for work, I have been swamped with school work, and work in general. I find solice in coming home and making good food, hanging out with my little family, or chatting with friends.

And, it wouldn't be full blogpost without one of my foodie pictures. I'll share with you a dinner I had the other day: My version of jajangmyeon is veganized of course, with Nappa cabbage, carrots, potatoes, green onions, black bean paste over noodles. 

This was my Thanksgiving dinner, vegan stuffing that my grandma K made, along with her home cooked carrots, Brussel sprouts, and cushaw slices.

A lot happened in October, so I'll give you all a rundown: Ashley and I traveled to the Red Rover Gorge, as we have made that our new tradition every October to celebrate thr anniversary of when we met for the first time. We had a mini vacation at a beautiful cabin, with a million dollar view of the Gorge and Appalchian mountains. I proposed to Ashley on the last day of our trip, in a very private wooded path that led to large rock formations with an teeney, tiny waterfall. 

Next, I was awarded Advocate of the Year award at my part time job. I wore a very cheap but very cute outfit, as you can see below. 

And, I want to show you some of my Halloween pictures. We decorated for October and we also carved these cute pumpkins.

In October, I also harvested pears from my Kieffer pear trees. 

The same day, I took a small walk in the woods and snapped some photos of rock formations and mushrooms. Judging by the bug activity of the mushroom, these look like they were probably edible. 

In September, for my mom's birthday, Ashley, myself and my sister took mom to the Renaissance Faire for a cute fun day.

And lastly, I'll show you this cute Fall setting that my grandma and I put together. 

I hope you all are taking care of yourselves. I know that for my self, even when I'm so, so busy, I try to take a walk- see nature, breathe fresh air in the woods, go to my local bar on trivia night, decorate, cook good food, and spend time with loved ones, and I hope you do the same in these tough times...

And of course, keep gardening!
