Hello all of you, and good morning! On Saturday, my beautiful wife and I went to our local eye doctor’s clinic to look at some options that I will have the opportunity to purchase. The new eyeglasses will be bold black! This certainly excites me because I have never owned a pair of eyeglasses that are this style.

After that, we went to Kubode, which is a fantastic little shop at Pike Place Market that creates and sells Kokedamas. Kokedamas are plants whose roots are encased in a moss ball. They are composed of the plant’s natural roots, soil, moss and twine. The roots and soil are formed into a sphere.  The best way to water a Kokedamas is submerging it for 30 minutes. Elise and I learned about Kubode when we were watching Evening Magazine, and this ended up giving me the idea of getting one for Elise on Mother’s Day last year. We went back to Kubode on Saturday to get a new case for our plant.
