Got my lil greenhouse assembled today! Perfect fit 👌

Indoors, my seedlings are sprouting, and outdoors, the flower and garlic bulbs I planted last fall are starting to come up 🤗 I love this so much, it’s the reward for surviving another Chicago winter. Weather permitting, these will move out to my new greenhouse later this month!

Seed day! I’m so eager to garden now that I have a better understanding of our yard and what thrives where. I’m growing a LOT more, trying some new methods, and I have a small greenhouse to experiment with for the first time. I’m most excited for a tea garden and to try more homegrown herbal teas.

I spent the day experimenting with linocut and letterpress at Midwest Ephemera today, and I had a BLAST. This is exactly what I needed to counter the helplessness I’ve been feeling. I’m really proud of that rat carving 🐀📍Belmont Cragin, Chicago

I love when an idea works out exactly as I had it in my head. I wanted a cheap, low-profile, adjustable shelving system for my seed trays this spring, and dollar store tension rods answered the call. Love my deep southern-facing windows 🫶 planting starts tomorrow!

I think I might have the best mail lady on earth. She got my phone number to text me about a redelivery last year, and since then, she texts me about important deliveries when she reaches my block. She’s never been asked, above and beyond for the sake of good service. Ms. Janet, you are a treasure.

Dude is life

Friday the 13th things. My dogs both love to steal the peas from my garden, two pea thieves in a pod. 💚

Sun’s out, hair’s done, AND I ate breakfast.

They hid seeds in their braids, as well, so they could grow food at their destination! Incredible.

I shot portraits with a client today inside the old Bridgeview Bank building. It was a real treat to be shooting in a space I’ve been curious about for years! Work has been putting the camera and paintbrush back in my hands recently, a little glimmer of optimism amid the AI of it all📍Uptown, Chicago

A cozy end to a cozy weekend. Be back soon 🤍 📍Union Pier, MI

Brad is writing, and I’m working on a few more birth flower commissions. Walden realness.

If you don’t love winter, you’re probably doing it wrong. 📍Union Pier, MI

I’ve said I could see myself moving to Michigan one day many times, but lately it’s feeling more like a goal than a passing thought. Might fuck around and start a homestead across the lake.

It’s been a cabin getaway kind of winter. Spending a cozy, romantic weekend in snowy Michigan 🤍

I’m normally with you. I’m on a staying cozy at home vibe right now, thankfully!

I do know that, but their compression is worse than any site I’ve shared video on 🥴 it seems to be kinda random, too. I’ve only had this happen this badly to 2 of the videos I’ve posted here. Unsure if that’s due to file size/format or a busy server? They’ve all been filmed with the same settings

Damnnnnn I really hate what Bluesky does to videos. This is unwatchable, why 😭

I think this has been the snowiest winter I’ve experienced in Chicago, possibly in my whole life. I’m really enjoying it, but we’ll see how I feel about it come March…
