I have no idea where my husband originally got this After Dark®️ Flying Toasters™️ tie, but it continues to be my favorite.

We are nerds of a certain age, etc.

Rudbeckia h. 'Chocolate Orange' #1 was a late addition to the garden this year and it's lovely! 🌱

I am once again engaged in the Sisyphean task of cleaning out Dekalb County's drainage canal that runs through my back yard. (This thing was built ~60 years ago and constantly fills up with silt/dirt, flooding my back yard and sometimes basement. It's a fucking nightmare.)

I enjoy eating kimchi in the comfort of my own kitchen, but now the whole house smells like farts.

It doesn't sound so scary when you put it like that.

The thing they don't tell you when you're a vegetarian is that tofu is approximately 45x more delicious when fried in bacon fat.

Hosta season is the best season. This one is called 'blueberry muffin' and it has 3 scapes up now (only two visible here). 🌱

Should have done it sooner.

It's my first season with Irises and I'm pleasantly surprised to see blooms. I'm looking forward to these forming clusters and filling in a bit, for more visual impact. 🌱

I'm nearing the end of an extremely lengthy work project (~18 months, with a presidential election in the middle) and it has been a JOURNEY.

Tech debt is the real enemy of the people.

A friendly bee was sampling as many flowers as possible on this azalea bush! 🌱

My first iris of the season has emerged. (In fact, it's my first season with any irises.) This one is called Honeycomb. 🌱

🌱 Front yard camellia party. This one typically blooms in Feb/March and has two distinctly different types of flowers. (Unsure if this is an anomaly or a specific cultivar with that characteristic. Theories welcome!)

Power is out again in Atlanta with the winter storm. But after Helene I got a V2L adapter for the Ioniq 5, so we can at least power a heat source and light. Next, I'm getting a panel connection hooked up.

I'm not sure if there's anything more joyful than kids having a snow day.
