Poisonous Poinsettias



(A beautiful christmas tree made out of poinsettias outside of our caffeteria.)

Merry Christmas Yal!! Saw some pretty poinsettias for sale for cheap and wanted to buy them but this thought popped in my head,  "You really shouldn't buy poinsettias becuase they are poisonous." So I figured can't hurt to google it. I love what I  have discovered!
" Another common misconception is that the plant is poisonous. Like most euphorbias, the sap is a little caustic and may cause skin irritation, and certainly indigestion if digested, but if you're going to knock the hubby off for the insurance money (there's a cheery holiday thought...), find another plant." - http://www.helpfulgardener.com/container/2003/poinsettia.html
LOL, so if you want to add some Christmas cheer to your home or dorm room, dont be afraid to add some poinsettias! ;)

Blessings & Peace!

In college, it was fear of future employers finding my words and using them against me or teachers reading about their kids future instructors. I now know, what comes out of my mouth in real life is far scarier than past words on a page. Yes, I do need to be mindful, being kind and not using the platform to roast customers that get on my nerves or a boss I am upset with. (Which tbh my store supervisor is the freaking sweetest! She cares about all of us as people, for the well being of the store and the community, couldn't have asked for a better top boss. Also, she's black so, whooo women in positions of leadership!!  #inspo #goals) This used...
