hey if ur in the midwest or more specifically missouri here’s some websites i’ve found helpful for finding native seeds and live plants (they’re not all in missouri or the midwest specifically but have some seeds from around here too bc truly human made borders are fake and plants go wherever they want so):
wildseedproject.net
mowildflowers (this websites cool bc they’ll deliver live plants to you if you live nearby enough and they also go to different places around missouri all year to sell plants at festivals or events or whatnot)
nativewildflowers.net
swallowtailgardenseeds.com
strictlymedicinalseeds.com
toadshade.com
treeseeds.com
ouriquesfarm.com
putnamhillnursury.com
sugarcreekgardens.com
prairiemoon.com
seedvilleusa.com (also on etsy)
mybutterflylady on etsy
everwilde.com
and if u ever need help or info or whatever about plants or even find a place to exchange plants and buy some on a forum check out dave’s garden
if anyone knows any other websites and wants to add them on i’d totally appreciate that c: !
(i will update this with more websites too if i come across any)

Our recommendation to Lisbon's Tram 28 works.
Tram 28 stops 100 m from our door. We use it ourselves - so these information are based on our own experience. #boutiquehotelLisbon, #familyhotelLisbon, #smallhotelLisbon, #hotelinGraca, #besthotelInLisbon, #Lisbon hotel, #Lisbonaccommodations, #Lisbonbedandbreakfast, #Lisbonboutiquehotel, #Lisbonfamilyhotel, #Lisbonromantichotel, #Bookdirectly, #Tram28, #whattodoinlisbon, #Lisbonattractions, #Gettingaroundinlisbon
Our recommendation to Lisbon’s Tram 28 works!
Some of our room need new bedcovers. So a few days ago we went to buy fabric in one of our favorite fabric shops in Campo De Ourique.
We used the occasion to try our our own all-the-need-to-know things about tram 28.
Tram 28E that has its final stop less than 100 meter from the fabric shop.
One of our advices is about how to avoid all the tourists…

New Day in Lisbon, Portugal.
The 28 Tram will take you from the typical neighbourhood Campo de Ourique to the center in Martim Moniz.
You'll also pass the oldest neighbourhood Alfama, and it's alleys that may seem impossible to pass.

Actually, have some European Portuguese (or Portuguese from Portugal) idioms and expressions that I love. (Some might also be used in Brazil. Others definitely are not)
1. Category: Expressions that exist because of the Lisbon Earthquake of 1755 (yes there's more than one in this category. No, we're not all 200+ years old but we still reference that earthquake every day)
Rés vés Campo de Ourique - It means that something didn't happen by an inch. This was because after the earthquake the Tsunami almost got to Campo de Ourique, a neighbourhood in Lisbon.
Caiu o Cabo e a Trindade - This means everything is going wrong. It comes from the fact that the earthquake destroyed two convents, Carmo and Trindade.
2. Expressions to say "Go annoy someone else" or just "Fuck off". There's a lot of these.
Vai chatear o Camões - Literally means "Go annoy Camões". Camões is a very well known poet and writer from the XVI century. It's a joke about saying to go annoy somebody who's dead.
Vai ver se estou na esquina - literally "go see if I'm in the corner".
Vai dar a volta ao bilhar grande - literally "go round the big billiard (table?)". Beautiful.
Vai tomar banho - literally "go take a bath"
3. Who the fuck thought of these???
Rebeubéu, pardais ao ninho - it means that there's a commotion and/or a lot of noise. To translate this literally is difficult because Rebeubéu is barely a word but it means something like "(onomatopoeia that means lots of noise) sparrows to the nest".
Montou-se ali um 31 - means the same as the last expression. Literally "A 31 was set up there". You can technically make your own expression with 31 and it will mean the same thing - chaos. Now the question is: What in the world is a 31? Well, until today I also didn't know. It's allegedly a card game.
Nasceu com o rabo virado para a lua - means that someone got lucky even when they did not deserve it. They got what they wanted but didn't do anything to get it. Literally "they were born with the butt turned to the moon".
Cu de Judas - It means far away and/or in a place difficult to find. Literally "Ass of Judas"... Ass in butt. This expression is used all the time.
4. Snork mimi 💤
Vou bater chocolate - literally "I'm going to whisk chocolate"
Vou para o vale dos lençóis (probably my favourite expression that I use all the time because the mental image is amazing) - literally "I'm going to the bedsheet valley"
Vou fazer oó - oó is an onomatopoeia for sleeping. Only used with babies or jokingly.
Vou nanar - technically it means "I'm going to sleep" as nanar is another verb for sleep but I wanted to include it because it's something that you will only hear said in familial situations. It's not informal in the street sense it's just that it's a sweet way to say sleep that it's just not said by anyone else besides your mum when she wants to ask if you're sleepy and want to go to bed. It's cute :)
5. The origin of this one is more interesting than the expression itself
Primeiro estranha-se depois entranha-se - it means that you might not like something at first but you'll start enjoying it with time. Literally means "First you find it's odd afterwards it's engrained". So, this was actually thought by Fernando Pessoa, also one of the most well known portuguese poets and writers. He died in 1937. Anyway, for this wasn't a title of a book or something. He wrote this for a fucking Coca-Cola commercial. Cursed information.
6. ???
Quem anda à chuva, molha-se - literally "Who's in the rain gets wet". It means "WHEN WILL YOU LEARN?! WHEN WILL YOU LEARN, THAT YOUR ACTIONS, HAVE CONSEQUENCES?!?!?!"
Pão, pão, queijo, queijo - literally "bred, bred, cheese, cheese", which is beautiful. It means "Exactly what I just said", "It means just that"
São coisas do arco-da-velha. Literally "It's stuff from the rainbow". It means whatever happen was unbelievable. In the good or bad sense. The most common way of saying rainbow in Portuguese is arco-íris but arco-da-velha is s synonym less used. Galicia still uses it a lot though.
Feito ao bife - (Used all the time!!!) Literally "done at the steak". It means you're fucked lol (aka you were busted and are in big trouble)
#bread‚ bread‚ cheese‚ cheese supremacy#languages#portuguese#european portuguese#idiomatic expressions#silly#portugal#the amount of expressions to say fuck off is honestly hilarious#I'm pretty sure I didn't put all of them

Portugal, the birth of a kingdom
From the 10th century the county of Porto affirmed its identity. In the 11th century, the Caliphate weakened and Alphonse Enriques, who defended the county of Porto, won the battle of Ourique. In 1140, Portugal became a kingdom and in 1249, it gained its final borders.
