Clump of about 8 bright yellow flowers blooming surrounded by dried brown leaves and twigs. Winter Aconite.
After our "winter that wasn't," this is the earliest that my winter aconite has bloomed. It's supposed to go down to -10°c next week, but these are tuff little plants!

I'm seeing loads of posts from #KidLit authors (including me) willing to virtual visit with MN classes who are on lockdown or doing virtual school right now or just in need of something exciting, fun, or kind in their day.
Thread as I find them. ⬇️
Intrigued....never heard of Dragon Puncher! I'm going to take your word for it. Just ordered!

Illustrated book cover reading “I’M BUSY” in large red letters. A pink flamingo stands on the letter B, a small potato sits above the letter M, and a girl with pigtails struggles to carry a tall stack of papers and notebooks as loose pages scatter around her.
Excited about the Feb.24 launch of I'M BUSY, written by @michaelianblack.bsky.social
& illustrated by yours truly (Simon & Schuster BFYR), part of our I'M series about kids' emotions. Available for pre-order!
Thanks Kirkus for nice review: www.simonandschuster.com/books/Im-Bus... #KidLit #ImBusy
Small poinsettia plant with a single bloom on one branch. Another couple of blooms forming on two other branches. Positioned next to south facing window.
I was gifted this small poinsettia 3 years ago and have been keeping it as a houseplant. Repotted it once last summer, but otherwise, I haven't fertilized or anything. For the first time, it is reblooming! 🌱 🪴

Cover of Toes, Teeth, and Tentacles: A Curious Counting Book, by Steve Jenkins & Robin Page. Pictures show a snake, an octopus, and a lemur arranged around the title.
2 eyes, 2 ears, 10 fingers, 10 toes. Normal, right? Toes, Teeth, and Tentacles: A Curious Counting Book, by Steve Jenkins & Robin Page, takes you from 1 to 10 and beyond, telling you about animals with that many of a certain feature.

After killing the CECOT story in the USA, CBS goofed and aired it in Canada. Now, as Canadians are uploading it to YouTube, CBS is filing copyright violations to block its further release.
But it's too late. Under Bari Weiss, CBS is state run media desperately cosplaying as legitimate journalism.

A colander full of freshly picked Indian mustard greens.
Red plum and yellow cherry tomatoes in a slow cooker with a chopped onion.
My fall/winter crop of mustard greens always performs better than my spring crop. Seems to love the cold weather. Chopped and into the slow cooker with the last of my tomatoes.
