from time to time i get the itch for a little personal project….you know, something that just is a bit out of my usual.  something that’s inspiring.  soothing.  and generally beautiful.  here’s a sample of what i’ve been doing in all my free time (insert a little sarcasm).  🙂 

in downtown san luis obispo, there’s a quite little alley with a magical little shop called The Secret Garden–an organic herb shop.

it’s filled with serene clusters of herbs and succulents, exotic (at least i think they’re exotic!) herbs that you may have never even heard of, and fragrant custom blends of teas, chais and spices.  

i’m going to empty out my cupboard of stale old spices and fill it with real cumin, thyme and cinnamon.  oh, and a few tea blends for my little monkeys, too!  

if you’re downtown, you’ve got to peak into the Secret Garden…the address is 1129 (patio) Garden Street.
