The pigeon article made think of something I read somewhere, recently I think but honestly who knows, that human beings have assigned the term "pest" to any animal that has successfully adapted to life in the anthropocene where all cards are stacked against any life but a manmade one - pigeons and seagulls, certain rodents, any bears who have figured out trash cans or deer and javelina who circumvent garden gates. Godspeed to them all.

Pistachio banana bread sounds delicious! I love that you shared what you learned from your herbalism class because I would have never thought such wonderful combinations could be created!

Reading this post while drinking the tea you so graciously shared is my way of unwinding today❣️ That Learn a Bird series is so cool! And I love purple hydrangeas, I’m happy to see them all over. 🤭 I really want to do a deep dive on the Bernadette Mayer’s list of journal ideas to reignite my love for journaling🦮💭

I'm so glad you're enjoying the tea! Purple hydrangea is always so elegant and lush, she's a good pick. And isn't Bernadette Mayer's list so reinvigorating?! I'm looking forward to seeing how it inspires you <3
