dino head My Almost-daily Journal

About
I love trying out new things, especially when it comes to internet technology. I never really kept a journal, but it's something that I've always wanted to do. Now, everybody will get a chance to look inside my twisted, and somewhat-warped mind. I've also subscribed to Audio Blog, so a few times a week, I'll leave actual voice blogs. Very cool!

Flower Day Is Almost Here!
On a lighter note, tomorrow is Flower Day! It's the Sunday after Mother's Day where all the flower distributors and wholesalers rent out space at the Eastern Market, located almost in the heart of Detroit. Normally Eastern Market is dedicated to the traditional market shoppers that want the freshest produce and meats available. Most of the fruit and vegetable markets usually procure their week's supply down at the Eastern Market. However, tomorrow is dedicated to just flowers.

Danielle and I are going to spend a few hours there, picking up flats of Impatiens, Begonias, Geraniums, and etc. at wholesale prices. Usually flats cost between $12 - $18 depending on where you get them. During Flower Day, you can get flats as low as $6 depending on how well your bartering skills are tuned.

We'll spend the rest of the day planting flowers, preceded by a dallop of sheep manure and peat moss to give the flowers a boost.

It's an annual tradition that I've done since I first owned my house. It's very relaxing and the rewards are bountiful. I'll take pictures. :)
