measure twice cut once
Next stage in the Squirrel Battle is in progress. Bird netting does NOT deter them from the veggie seedlings — they bite right through it. It’s time for a full frame, chicken wire enclosure.
fuchsia buds
Fuchsia is such a weird word. Even though I am good at spelling, I keep thinking it should be ‘fuschia’. In fact, knowing that I find the word tricky, I looked it up before doing this lettering and STILL spelled it wrong. I had to move the letters around in Photoshop to correct it. Doh!

Our carrots are growing all twisted like arthritic fingers. I assume it’s because I planted them from nursery seedlings rather than direct from seed, and they didn’t get a chance to put down a long straight tap root until it was too late. Back to seed next year!
snail
It’s not just the finches and towhees who appreciate the bird bath.
monstera deliciosa
Learned something new!
