Mushroom Foraging Fairy ~✨ 🍄

 Hey all. I made a video last week in preparation for this weeks post, but the more I look at it, the more unhappy with it, I become. In the meantime, I will work on a new blog post and get it up in time next week. Thanks for being understanding! ✌🏼 Send good vibes my way! It’s been a rough last few weeks 💕 

Hey y'all! August is finally passed, and we are finally saying hello to September and fall! I cannot wait for autumn, but before we move forward, we must look back; in this case back to this month's August favorites! Song- "I am Not a Woman, I'm a God'- Halsey I love this song with all my being. It is the perfect 'bad-bleep-Addison-Rae' song for waking up in the morning and getting ready. I have always been a fan of Halsey, and their work, but for me "If I Can't Have Love, I Want Power" is hands down her best album. I would highly recommend giving it a listen if you haven't already. Some other favorites I have off this album are "Bells in Santa Fe" and "Lilith." This totally has confidence inducing, comfort album potential. 2.  Favorite activity - picnicking 💕  My favorite activity this month has been picnicking! I realized how beautiful my backyard is and just started to picnic there! It’s so peaceful to spend time aw...

  Hello everyone! School has just started and I am so excited to be back and learning again  🤓  but another thing I’m excited to be doing is getting more time to movie watch! So I thought I would share some of my favorite movies! 1. The Secret Garden The Secret Garden is a timeless, all time favorite of mine. I read the classic novel and received the movie as a gift for my 9th birthday. I watched it over and over again. I love the magic of finding a place that only you know about. All the secrets Mary was finding in the manor sparked so much excitement in me when I was young. As I grow older I can appreciate and understand the characters, as well as enjoy the theme more. The appreciation for something as simple as a garden is so healing, and this movie reminds one of that.  2. Little Women Little Women was the last movie I saw in a real theatre when it came out in January 2020, and am I glad it was! I also read this classic but not all the way through! So the twist ...

Hello everyone! It has been raining all day today, but unlike some, I love the rain. It gives us a good atmosphere to stay inside, spend time with our families, or spend much needed time with ourselves. So here are some ideas for a fun day indoors. 1.  Learn something new-  I can’t speak for everyone but I know my bookshelf is full of untouched books chalk full of interesting and useful information. From ‘Herbal Remedies’ to “The History of Fashion,” there is a plethora of different things to read about. It never hurts to expand the knowledge of your mind. If you don’t have any books on hand, you may be able to check them out for free through an electronic library, or use the internet for your research. Whether book or phone, make sure your author is using reliable sources, and have fun learning.  Work on a project-   At the moment, I am toiling away with a little cross stitch, just begging to be finished and framed. Whether seamstress, artist, crotchet-er, or aspiri...

   Hello friends! It has been a hot minute since I uploaded any articles! This month has been a busy whirlwind, I feel, with a full time job and preparing for vacation, but last week I was finally able to take a looong break from it all.  A lot has happened! A lot of experiences and fun, so without further ado, here are my June favorites! 1. Song ~ You Right- Doja Cat Miss Doja! She came out with a new unexpected album titled “Planet Her” and I could not have been more excited. I have loved Doja since her Amala era and couldn’t wait to see what this album had in store. Though it is definitely subject to change, my favorite song at the moment is ‘You Right ft. The Weeknd.’ The moral is arguably questionable but music is less about morals and more about stories and experiences; right or wrong. I think what drew me to this song in particular is the beat behind it all. The production gave me a heavy feeling of immersion, as if I were being pulled into the world and feelings o...

Picking flowers is one of my favorite pastimes. Yes, actually. I love stopping by roadsides, searching through the forest, and even my own backyard for different florals.  Since Beltane/MayDay was a few days ago, I thought I might post about something so commonly found in peak springtime! One of the first times I really got interested in flowers is when I created a Botany Book in Middle School: Initially my interest peaked in Apothecary, which is why I wrote down healing properties and methods. I’m still a big believer in folk medicine and would really enjoy foraging! Here is one of my favorite YouTubers on that: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCcbf8wnyVJl631LAmAbo7nw Beyond that I guess I just wanted to talk about my love of the flowers I find. I really enjoy learning about whether they are native or not and exactly what they are. One really good app I found for this is called Seek. You can download it here on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/seek-by-inaturalist/id13532...

       Typically when I create my blog posts I try to keep them lighthearted, but I have just not been feeling it. A lot of the recent news in the world has been sorrowful and disheartening and that is something I desperately needed a break from.       I have previously had qualms with Instagram, from feeling exhausted from the excessive flicking through stories and posts, to the fact that it’s platform seems to encourage unhealthy, volatile, and upsetting discourse, and although my current issue isn’t one that can be fixed by the platform, I still felt deleting it would be the best thing for me to do for myself, at least for the time being.       So, for whatever reason you may be considering or already discontinuing your social media (temporarily or permanently),here are a few good activities you can do instead of being online ♥️  1. Embroidering/ cross stitching/sewing! I have wanted to begin cross stitching and embro...
