I love words, yarn, animals, food, and Jesus. Not necessarily in that order.
We have grown other varieties of popcorn before and had no success with the kernels actually popping. It worked this time! So excited!

My super power is cutting a piece of cake in half, eating the half piece, and then going back for the other half.

This is how many kernels I’ve pulled off of four of the strawberry popcorn ears we grew this year. Only 26 ears of corn to go… #gardening

Woke up this morning to my fridge on the fritz, and I got pulled over for a broken taillight while I was on my way to the place to get it fixed.
Happy Tuesday that thinks it’s a Monday to all who celebrate!

While on our walk, a tree was overwhelmed with chaotic chirping, tweeting, and rustling. It sounded like the tree was alive. Suddenly, a blue jay flew into the mix while squawking loudly. All the chirping stopped.
Who knew blue jays were community noise ordinance enforcers?

For those who are tender,
And those who are afraid.
For those who are anxious,
And those who are alone.
May we all be a little more kind.

My geranium never got the memo that the season is over. We’ve had a few hard freezes, and she hasn’t given up hope.

I’ve heard it said the only constant in life is change. I choose to believe that, while we can’t control everything that happens, we can still choose to work for positive change.

I agree we do need to step up. And we’re taking volunteers.

I’ve felt sad the last few days, but I made and shared cookies with a group. I’m making chili and cinnamon rolls tonight to feed the office for lunch tomorrow.
Feeding people is my love language, and I won’t let the dumpster fire of the world or my emotional dysfunction take that away from me.

I’m not one to use my car horn frequently, but when a person blows a stop sign and nearly causes an accident, it’s really unsatisfying to have a car horn that sounds like a kazoo.

I just started roasting and puréeing pumpkins from my garden. I did the biggest pumpkin today and got almost 7 cups of pumpkin (just shy of 4 cans worth). #gardening
