The Heart of Dixie

@theheartofdixie-blog

By day I am a lowly telecom rep, workin' for the weekend along with the rest of the underprivileged world. But after work I am Dixie Kicks, a proud previous member of the Boston Massacre roller derby team and a proud new member of the Blue Ridge Rollergirls. When I am not wearing skates, you can find me cooking up a vegan storm in the kitchen, petting my cats, planning my next adventure, looking for great vintage finds at thrift stores, spending lots of time with my boyfriend, and planning craft projects that will never be started and/or completed.

Pretty flowers from our yard 😊🌸💗 Roses, peonies, cornflowers, lavender and sage.

Kitten and flower reflections. 🌸✨😸

Pretty blooms going on in the yard right now. #clematis #roses 💜💗

I love our big, old oak tree, but it sure is high maintenance. In the Fall it drops leave for seemingly forever. Gabe and I seriously spent about 12 collective hours cleaning up leaves. But now it's Spring and its spitting all of these tassels (or seaweed, as my mom used to call it) EVERWHERE! How rude! If you need me, I'll be raking this crap up for days. 😜🌳

I love my Pirate snuggles! 😻💜💘

How my week has gone. #TGIF

Came home from work and found this beautiful bearded iris in the yard. It was just a bud this morning--I didn't know it would bloom that quickly. I planted it 2 years ago and had no idea what color it would be. So nice 😊🌸💓 #beardediris #iris

Got my hair redone on Saturday and didn't wash it until this morning...when I woke up purple. Not pictured: purple sides of face, purple neck, purple ears and shoulders. I purpled myself! #haircolorproblems #purplepeople

Great record finds at the Salvation Army yesterday. I think they were only 50 cents! Now that we have a record player, I have an excellent excuse to listen to the Sound of Music soundtrack and Barbara Streisand 😜

I noticed yesterday that the Arboretum had updated the quilt garden. I went up to take a look at it and was surprised to see that the pattern is all butterflies. 😻💗 (at The North Carolina Arboretum)

Window sill flowers from our yard. Probably the last of the Daffodils and Tulips for this season. Cornflowers are still going strong, though. #flowerparty #edenbrothers

One of my favorite plants is the Bleeding Heart. I thought I killed them last year, but they're back! 🌸💕💗💓

Flowers at the arboretum yesterday. 🌸😻✨ (at The North Carolina Arboretum)

Presenting the 2016 asparagus harvest from our garden. It's taken about 3-4 years to get spears of this size. Now, we feast!

Beauties from the yard: Cornflowers and Apple blossoms, flanked by tulips. #flowerpower #edenbrothers

Made a couple nice bouquets at the Floral Social tonight. Can't wait until the rest of the flowers open. Fun night hosted by @blackbergcreative (at East West Pop Up Shop)

Sometimes you find great things while perusing the sale sections at AC Moore. #flyyourflag #crazycatlady
