June 2025 was full of ups and downs, and lots of beautiful flowers! Our garden is producing a good amount of tomatoes, beans, tomatillos, figs, peppers, herbs and roses. Unfortunately, rats have eaten most of the tomatoes and a lot of beans.π We’ve set up humane traps and are catching them left and right, we rehome them in the canyon and wish them good luck!
















I’m very sad to report that my friend, and friend to the whole neighborhood, Peanut the sweetest squirrel, was killed by a speeding car in front of our house yesterday. I’m devastated.


And just before I hit publish, I saw the headline. Instead of celebrating America this July, I can only cry for democracy. There are no words, just a sickness in the pit of my being. π
