Orchid Fest



zfoxylady and I attended an orchid show at Red Butte Garden a coupla' weeks ago. It was great timing since I had a few questions about orchid care for my own burgeoning greenhouse (actually just 2 orchids, though they are multiplying—they must be happy). It turns out I need to subject them to a little cool air for a few weeks inducing a dormancy period. Hopefully I will get to that eventually!

I discovered this lovely filter on photoshop which I now enjoy applying to every image I take, so the bottom 2 images are the stylized orchid pics. 



It was good to get out of the house and go to the orchid fest; although, I am still exhausted on such a regular basis. The semester is winding down. I have my final due in 2 weeks and then I begin work on my Master's project!

Perfume of lately (I have been wearing it often): Kim Kardashian (I kid you not. Try it out for yourself.)

I'm so glad! Orchids are some of my favorite flowers as well.
