Lmao a Nobel Prize winner finds the solution to the global fertility collapse is for men to do the dishes and laundry more often -- more or less the precise opposite of the trad prescription

I had a phenomenal time at the Invictus Games in Vancouver on the weekend. The Canadian Military Wives Choirs from Comox to Halifax were together singing and cheering for 4 days. We wrapped it up on stage at the Rogers Arena with the War and Treaty on Sunday night.

Beginning the 2025 season. I seeded red and yellow onions, sage, thyme, rosemary, parsley, poppies, lupines, echinacea, rudbeckia and daisies.
But first I had to clean a whole bunch of stuff and hang my new lights.

I think I'll wait until next week to plant the carrots.
It's the first snow of the season in Comox! It started snowing on Sunday night and it's still going.
I hope you have somewhere cozy to enjoy the view.
I'm going to get out some carrots and onions and potatoes and make stew.
