I also discovered I have a bumper crop of aphids. ๐ I'd be inclined to just let them be and let their natural predators deal with them, but I haven't hardly seen any wasps this year, and there's nary a ladybug in sight.
Might go spray some super mild dish soap and wipe off the majority.

Just saw a Monarch checking out the milkweed in my garden! Couldn't quite get a shot of that, since the flowers aren't open yet or didn't stick around for very long. But it knows where they are now!
I interrupted this Robin's bath time too. Oops.

I keep hearing about a planned NWS outage for tomorrow, meaning NOAA weather radios won't work. Can anyone confirm, sent, or clarify on this? Seems like a poor choice for such a high risk day.
I'm mostly concerned for overnight, when my phone isn't always enough to wake me up.
Speaking of #sourdough, what is everyone using for pretty delivery wraps? Tea towels? Beeswax-coated cloths?

I have two deals closing on Wednesday, and the third on Friday. So of course, we're forecasted to have an insane severe weather outbreak on Monday. ๐ซ
I'm distracting myself with making bread, and envisioning a little protective dome over each each of my client's homes.
Make them Green Chili Cheese Fries and this will be me:
