Sassafras flowers sprouted from a twig pruned this winter!
Fun facts about sassafras albidum from the MO Dept of Conservation:
Female spicebush swallowtails can "taste" leaves with their forelegs, and when they land on a sassafras leaf, they know they have found a suitable egg-laying site. 1/4

Goose attracts a lot of attention with his antics. Our newest neighbor saw him playing with his old deflated soccer balls and decided to get him a new and improved giant football! It's bigger than her yorkie!

Goose wants to know what exactly you think you're doing. It is clearly time to play. Any other course of action is simply not acceptable.
Happy Saturday, STL! The sun is shining.

I'm at the grocery store for the first time in weeks, definitely since before the winter storm hit. GF friends: this is your time!!!
I'm wandering around thanking workers for not quitting and putting mysterious items in my cart. This is a trip.

I dug rosemary, thyme, and cilantro from my yard ahead of the pending storm and hard freeze. They are basking in the purple hue of a grow light until the sun returns sometime next week!
