Well, fam, this is the first plant to go into my little 💐 garden. My friend Diane took me to a flower nursery and we picked it out. It won't be lonely too long. Diane has promised me some Johnny jump ups. And she's given me sweet alyssum seeds.

Before last year the garden was Eugene's. Despite all my community garden volunteering I was convinced that with 💐 I would be totally inept. The last summer I chose some of the flowers and discovered I wasn't. This summer I'm psyched to create a beautiful space to read near.

Today is a really special day. It's my Amber's birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊. Let's all wish her a wonderful birthday and a most successful book launch--only a month away.

A great big shout out goes out to Amber and Diane.
