When there has been rolling thunder for over an hour, and the clouds finally let some rain down we go play in the rain. ^_^
The petrichor was amazing.

Oh Santa Rosa, how you've risen from the ashes. ♡
The weather, people, birds and trees were all wonderful.
My mind was often on the devastation your city endured - but you didn't let it stay there long. The way your city and people have recovered is remarkable.
Thank you for sharing your beauty with us.

I've just been contacted by friends, apparently someone is trying to steal my account or just copy my page.
If they contact you, please report.
Thanks!

Berryland!
Picking blueberries in our yard this morning. I'm very much enjoying the solitude as I select ripe berries and pull weeds.
I was notified the rest of the world is waking by a couple carpenter bees who've come by to visit our Salvia - its a fan favorite a hummingbird just came for a drink too. 😊
Also learning more about plants and nutrition as I'm listening to 'The Proof Is In the Plants' by Simon Hill.
Simon Hill in one ear, birds and bees (and traffic from the road over) in the other. It's a good morning. ♡

Another turn around the sun.

It's strange to reflect on how much changes in a year, especially when there are young people in your life. Their growth is as noticeable as spring wildflowers - their exploration is captivating and beautiful to witness.

I'm feeling blessed this new year.

Excited to finally be able to announce we're expecting kiddo #2 in May!

I've been hiding from stories and posting because I knew someone would figure it out - especially on stories. 😅 Now that I'm entering 2nd trimester, and have stopped barfing as much, you'll see my lovely mug more. 😁

Something to keep in mind when reading labels. ♡

Food labeling is confusing. But do not be deceived!

When orange juice says it's non-GMO, please recognize that all oranges are non-GMO. The only potential GMO products in the USA are papaya, corn, alfalfa, soybeans, cotton, potatoes, squash, canola, sugar beets, and apples.

When organic milk is labeled antibiotic free, remember that all dairy products, including milk, are always antibiotic free. Same applies to meat.

Those bananas advertised as cholesterol free? That's because all bananas are cholesterol free.

When a jar of peanuts says it is made in a plant that processes peanuts just use your common sense and roll your eyes.

When a bag of apples says it is gluten free, remember that gluten comes from wheat.

When you see a Facebook post that talks about hormones in beef, please understand that an 8oz serving of beef has 2-3 nanograms of estrogen, an 8 oz serving of white bread has 136,080 nanograms of estrogen, and 8 ounces of soy flour has 342,468,000 nanograms of estrogen. All living things produce estrogen, it's just science.

When that carton of eggs says that they came from vegetarian fed chickens, don't forget that chickens are naturally omnivores.

So yes, eat healthy, but don't be swayed by deceptive advertising. Be informed.

No farms, no food. Know your farmers, know your food.

Truest statement I've made in a while.

You've got to be consistent long enough to see results. If after a while results stent what you'd hoped for, tweak something. Make a change.

Don't stay the same hoping for a different result.

Change.
