Welcome back, friend.

Currently reading: Plato at the Googleplex: Why Philosophy Won’t Go Away by Rebecca Goldstein. Often the books I list here are ones I have read before, in some cases many times, but I’m doing my first careful end-to-end read of this one, and it’s fantastic. 📚

Currently reading: Death and the King’s Horseman: A Play by Wole Soyinka 📚

Currently reading: The Good Apprentice by Iris Murdoch 📚

We planted this Lindheimer’s beeblossom last year, and we’re delighted that it survived our polar vortex just fine and is looking great – because never has a flower been better named. The bees adore it. And all of us need to take care of our bees.

Don’t give me any ideas.

Currently reading: The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch by Philip K. Dick 📚

Can’t tell y’all how excited I am about this.
