How curious that the shadow makes the open shape of the wire look twisted.

This was the kind of imagery lying around the rooms of the cool older kids when I was starting to form my cultural consciousness.
I am deeply grateful that I can soothe myself with food. I made basil, garlic chive pesto last summer when the garden was at its height and froze some (before adding cheese). The sourdough starter needs to be used at least a couple of times a month. I made enough dough to have a personal pizza four or five times. Finally got the crust both crunchy and chewy.
I could mention that work is busy, I am continuing to refine and expand making reparations and seeking decency and justice, and I am participating in an on-line meditation retreat with an hour of practice at noon every day this week.

In the middle of this chaos. She reveals my privilege. Self care is not adequate without community care.

A minor upside of global climate change. Fresh mint and lemon balm for tea in mid-winter.

I found a couple of plants shivering on the sidewalk last week. They seem to be recovering nicely. I divided several plants over the holiday period, and repotted others. I find the plants help me stay inside.
