Family gardens and a ‘pizza pot’ project
We’re so excited about our family garden! I told my husband that all I wanted for my birthday was my own little section of soil ready to be planted.

Now I won’t have that as an excuse anymore because I’ll just whip up a batch of my own. Much like the garden, this is another fun summer project that is great for families but certainly doesn’t require kids….or anyone other than your adult self for that matter.

We’re far from where we need to be as a society and in terms of law enforcement and government involvement– yet the more we acknowledge this disturbing epidemic the more we can do to work towards its eradication.

Does this monkey hold the cure for AIDS?
I’ve heard rumblings about this before…..and I really hope that scientists are onto something here. But I can’t get over the photo here. Sooty mangabeys looks fierce. He knows he’s he’s got this.
With infinite love, gratitude, and respect,
