These things were making me happy around the end of May / beginning of June, I wanted to post them then, but various stuff like work & family visits got in the way.

[sweet potato & parsnip curry with rice; cilantro, green onions, and homemade yogurt on top. this bowl, one of my favorites, was made by awesome friend & ceramicist & artist Joan Wyand!]

[I found this stuck into the busted retaining wall in front of our house, another variant of blackletter font is on the back]

[these were found within days and blocks of each other, along Manton Ave.]

[succulents & cacti growing in their newly large pots — the third-from-left cactus has a tiny flower on it]

[and, last but not least, in my community garden plot, front to back: green beans, a mystery squash that thought it was a bean, chard, kale, radishes, asparagus! hooray!]
