Eat the Flowers.

These, not the deadly ones.

Also, the cat distribution system has blessed us with yet another. Meet Yukon Cornelius, stray cat about to get caught and neutered.

Love seeing this Eagle family on the property line. This Eagle pair routinely uses the area around our farm to hunt, train, and communicate with each other. Low fly-by’s are frequent.

I sign up for workshops with anticipation, and hope. Working with people I admire is a delight, spending time with creatives joyful, inspiring. Sign up for that thing. Meet your heroes. You’ll never be sorry that you did.

Perhaps we should all be watching Call the Midwife, to see how very far we've come, and how embarrassing some behaviors are in retrospect. If nuns can show kindness and compassion, why can't we all?

Thank you; and would love to see this when it happens!

Yes! It smells absolutely divine, tough fragrance to describe, it's very unique.

It feels appropriate to start afresh, in January. Enjoying brisk January days of sunshine. Here, in the PNW, we have Mt. Tahoma/Rainier looming in the background, looking a bit miffed to take second fiddle to this blooming Hamamelis 'Diane', a glorious specimen in winter, adding needed color.
