I was in Louisiana over the weekend setting up my apartment and took some time visiting friends. Here I am always telling bull.

And always and forever enamored by plants. We're looking at peppers.

One of these here is my redneck.

The apartment is puny but this is the view right from my living room. And compared to my postage stamp size apartment in Cebu where the only view is my ceiling and the house lizards, I think this is heaven. It looks good in the picture but the color brown and blue just doesn't make me feel quiet feminine. Or cultured.

Oh, in case you're wondering why I got an apartment here in redneck town, it is so I don't have to drive 4 hours to spend time with my redneck and I need an apartment here in the US anyway.
