Just got off the organizing call for @avilewis.ca, and this is the first time I’ve been excited about a politician since Jack Layton. Avi is the real deal and is bringing back the federal NDP to their roots. It’s about time #CdnPoli #NDPLeadershipRace #NDP #AviLewis

My latest read was just dropped in my mailbox from Take Cover Books in Nogojiwanong (Peterborough). I’m looking forward to digging into this one tonight (and for many nights to come). #Shelfie #TBR

Garden update, week 4: The onion family seedlings are still doing great. My sweet potato has sprouted, as have my tomatoes, peppers, cauliflower, and broccoli. So far, so good! Can’t wait to get these babies into the earth. Patience.

Very excited for my next read. Just finished The Stone Sky by N. K. Jemisin, and what an amazing trilogy that was. That one is going to stay with me for a very long time. This book feels like a nice shift and timely too.
