Mother Daughter Murder Night is a pleasant light read with the obligatory murder and an interesting 3 generation dynamic .

The Editor by Sara B. Franklin is a delight. This incredible food historian has presented a loving, but fair account of the life of Judith B. Jones, who edited John Updike and Anne Tyler for their entire careers.

She also brought America Julia Child, Lydia Bastianich and Madhur Jaffrey.

Hellebores! 🌱
They remind me of my lovely father in law, who had an enormous herbaceous border with multiple hellebores.
We actually dug some up before they razed the house and replanted them in our garden.💙🌱
Lovely hellebores from Clare 🌱

A wonderful old Siberian iris variety, 'Flight Of Butterflies' (1972). A large clump is a sight to see. I added it to the garden two years ago and hope it will show off this spring for me.

Living with uncertainty is like having a rock in your shoe. If you can’t remove the rock, you have to figure out how to walk despite it. There is simply no other choice."

This is an excellent memoir. The complexity of this one human and his quest to better himself is really inspiring in these dark times.

Freestyle* soup making tonight: Buckeye bean's, chicken sausage with apple & Gouda, a bunch of sliced carrots, and kale in a chicken stock. Threw a Parmesan rind into the mix which created a crazy good and rich flavor in an otherwise light dish. 🍽️🍜
*No recipe, just a general direction.

I needed this.
The fact that you see how wrong this all is, means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly; you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times.

Tim Robbins was a huge influence for me in high school.

RIP Tom Robbins, whose cosmically comic novels about gargantuan-thumbed hitchhikers, stoned secret agents and mystic stockbrokers caught hold of millions of readers in the 1970s counterculture, died on Sunday at his home in La Conner, Wash. He was 92. amzn.to/4jS3j9G

I’m not kidding: those who delegate all their writing, thinking and creative expression to machines are going to wake up one day and discover that they can no longer write or think. You need to make your own art. You need to keep your brain working. You need to stay human.
