Apple blossoms, a perfect breeze, seedlings to plant in the garden. Sigh. And here I am in my [...]]]></description>

A two hour nap with Bean, our noses pressed into nooks amongst the pillows, rain falling outside.
Buying seedlings: artichokes (the love affair continues), lettuces, swiss chard. 
Following a dashing Bean around the Aquarium, checking out turtles stacked like pancakes, and sea stars and frogs.

A weekend trip south, to Blue Poppy&#8217;s, to spend time with wonderful Lizardek and her lovely mom, and Elizabeth and her T. Ambling walks in the sunshine with a crowd of golden pups. Every moment filled up with wonder and delight and gratitude: these women come from my planet.

Artichokes for dinner: a Bean favorite. Mine too. We eat all the way to the heart, dipping each leaf in lemon butter; then wonder at the purple and pale green thistle center.

It&#8217;s suddenly warm here. Days perfect for drinking fizzy water and limes. Days for getting first sunburns, working in the garden. A week of [...]]]></description>

Standing at the kitchen sink this morning rinsing a glass, I was thinking about blogging. About this blog, about how I started it for one reason, and have continued it for another entirely. 
The sunlight in the morning has made all the difference lately, and this morning you could see new grass on the lawn, [...]]]></description>

I’ve been shy here, lately. Perhaps dodging myself a bit. Not really sure how to pick up where I’ve left off—I’ve been so sporadic with posting lately—yet I really am missing the regularity of sharing moments and comments. I’ve been fragile this winter.
