Don't you love nature?
These three dandelions were enjoying the sunshine in a field of weeds. I appreciate their enthusiasm as well as their prettiness โค๏ธ

Here I am about to start my author talk at West Torrens library.
I wear a mask for vulnerable family. It's no biggie.

A lively crowd with plenty of great questions about my book, psychology & indie publishing โค๏ธ
I love meeting other booklovers!

Quick question?
All the lovely fiction I borrowed from the library say "Bestseller".
Do you look for this when you're choosing a book?
Here's one I liked - Vicki Delaney's very pretty book cover for Tea & Treachery.
A marvellous tea & sea theme!

I planted these against the zincalume fence last year, after unsuccessfully trying them in another part of the garden.

All quiet here in prep for my talk tonight at West Torrens library.
But a stroll around my garden is a must, because the number of bees there, honeybee & native, & other insects & wildlife, is very calming.

A rogue tomato has planted itself into my spinach pot!
It's in a black pot on sheltered paving, so it's warm here.
This plant hasn't read the text book that says don't plant tomatoes yet!
If you look closely you'll even see a cheeky flower ๐ŸŒผ

Green leaves with a small flowering head appearing.

A mystery plant about to flower, as you can see in the middle.
More and more I think it might be hollyhocks. A selfseeded one appeared on our verge, so I spread some seed around the garden.
Is this the result?
I should find out over the next few weeks
