My friend Christy(Peas for Prosperity) tweeted me to come out to the Botanical Gardens yesterday because they were having some great things going on. She is the guru in recycling and all things healthy living. My friend Lori and I cruised down there to find a lot of people out and about enjoying the beautiful sunny day.

We walked through the gardens and saw Blown Organics: The Glass of Cohn-Stone Studios. The glass pumpkins were too cute and perfect for your garden at home. Their exhibit ends this month. I took pics of fun recycled art work by locals. The pink lady was my favorite!

We then moseyed over to the edible gardens were it was full of vegetables,fruits and herbs and edible flowers. The outdoor kitchen is there for Chefs to create delicious healthy recipes and the crowd can sample fresh from the garden. Chef Megan showed us the wall of herbs and where she prepares her food.

I went to a couple of events over the weekend and I was getting complemented left and right about my lil ol poofy dress lol. This dress was purchased at the mall at a store called, Charlotte Russe for 10.00. I started not to get it because of the zipper sticking but said what the heck! So I bought it and thought oh, yeah I have some shoes to match this. I put the look together and I thought it came out cute. My necklace is by a friend of mine name Christy who makes recycled jewelry. The name of her company is called, Peas for Prosperity. She made the necklace for my birthday. I put my pink crinoline underneath the dress and added my fab Betsey Johnson shoes. It was a huge hit, thanks guys for all the compliments and happy tuesday!

This morning I visited the Farmer’s Market in downtown Atlanta and had a ball. I love going to fresh organic markets and buying fruits and veggies. There was a lil special treat today because they had a parade and lots of vendor booths. I loved seeing all the different things that Lawrenceville has to offer.
