Such a lovely swirl of animated conversation and joy this weekend with visiting friends. One is a chef and made risotto with sidestripe prawns. Last night I made a chard ricotta lemon galete with a leavened crust.

Never thought I’d be celebrating the likely win of a neoliberal banker as PM but Carney is a banker who actually believes we need to get off fossil fuels. Please vote Liberal if you’re in a riding where Trumpian Conservatives cd win. 338canada.com/federal.htm

Now that we are back to regular weather programming I planted pea seedlings in the hoop house and little lettuce seedlings and radish seeds in the greenhouse. Incubating some Oaxacan Pasilla pepper seeds at 32c in water till they sprout.

Happy Valentine’s Day! We celebrated by picking our first bunch of citrus ever today. Washington navels, Satsuma mandarins, Mandelos (the BEST! A pomelo x mandarin cross) and Meyer lemons.
