It’s not everyday you get a chance to celebrate your journey of becoming a plant mom. So today I am I am going to live it up!
It was a warm, VERY warm Sunday afternoon, my friend and I decided to head on down to the Eastern Market for their annual Flower Day celebration.
At Flower Day, you typically see a bunch of flower and plant sellers selling your spices like Pepermint, Thyme or succulents like cactus.
Then you’ll have artisan vendors selling Detroit themed clothing , or baked goods like breads and cookies.
It’s a mixture of culture and fun for Michiganders all seeking one thing = to buy flowers.
This is my third or fourth time going and I normally go to just soak up the sun, create content and to hang with my friends.
This year I decided to challenge my friend on us buying a plant and becoming plant moms.
Of course we chose the craziest plant and got us both a cacti.
We only paid $3 for it and we definitely thought it was a deal.
