It’s been months, but I’m back to show my first tiny crop of tinier tomatoes from my #hydroponic #aerogarden!
I thought the dead and dry leaves meant nothing was going to grow, but I was wrong!

This clip of Joe Biden photobombing Kamala Harris is sure to make you smile. 😄 Doubt we'll be seeing any fun and uplifting moments like this in The White House over the next four years. 💔

Elon Musk is getting offended that people are calling Tesla Cars "Swastikars".
In fact, he’s Fuhrious about it.

I was at a stoplight in DC. The car next to me was blasting the #Wicked soundtrack! So I rolled down my window & started singing and gesticulating towards her, so she rolled down her window, and we sang together! It was great! She said that made her week, then the light changed and we drove off! 😄

I didn’t know until today that the wonderful Carol Duvall died in 2023. She has left an amazing creative legacy!
"Queen of Crafts" #CarolDuvall has died at 97. Duvall was a DIY star on Detroit TV for years before becoming the resident craft expert on #ABC's #HomeShow in 1988. In 1994 she moved to #HGTV with "The Carol Duvall Show", which moved to #DIYNetwork from 2005-2009. She also authored two how-to books.

I am very proud of my #Commanders! What an exciting season! I cannot wait to see what happens next season!
This Commanders season was magical, but what comes next is more important, and it has to be even better.
