Planting lettuces today and getting the ginger I sprouted into the greenhouse. Today’s lunch reminds me why I do this. Eggs from a neighbour in reciprocity for supper and broccoli and kraut all from her. The bread is my own but the flour is from our prairies.

Such a lovely swirl of animated conversation and joy this weekend with visiting friends. One is a chef and made risotto with sidestripe prawns. Last night I made a chard ricotta lemon galete with a leavened crust.

Lest we be blind eyes retreating to our temporarily safe bubbles (“it’s those people not me”), check out Ezra Klein’s latest. The US is disappearing people to a Salvadoran prison built for disappearances. Trump wants to send “homegrown” Americans there next. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...

Share with friends in our riding who might be thinking of voting for the Conservatives. This lays out the clear links between them Jordan Peterson. There have also been lots of pieces about his party’s ties to Trump’s INNER CIRCL. Poilievre is a traitor. www.nationalobserver.com/2025/04/08/a...

Pretty well my favourite B movie of all time for its prescience. It’s from 2007 before smart phones made us dumb and Trump was elected. It’s all there folks! Watch America unravel and laugh while it happens. tv.apple.com/ca/movie/idi...

We have a chance that climate change deniers will win our riding with Blue Green and Red TIED. Vote Green for climate. Voting Liberal likely risks a vote split. Vote Green and the worst thwt happens if they hold the blance of power! 🌎 338canada.com/bc.htm

Never thought I’d be celebrating the likely win of a neoliberal banker as PM but Carney is a banker who actually believes we need to get off fossil fuels. Please vote Liberal if you’re in a riding where Trumpian Conservatives cd win. 338canada.com/federal.htm

Spoke to a woman today on Salt Spring who’s reading (and believing) some pretty crazy rumour mill stuff sbout Carney — that he is not Canadian and is a plant. We need to be on guard for this bullshit in the hands of those who traffic in alternative facts. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/m...

Our lives are richer with WWOOFers. Their energy and verve buoy us up and make our the land lives we’ve chosen here possible. ❤️

“The top 10 per cent of U.S. earners now account for 49.7 per cent of the country’s spending, according to Moody’s Analytics – the highest share since the data set started in 1989.” www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

Russia is no longer a cyber security threat! I’m so glad!! Way to go Trump! And wolves don’t have teeth. Buy a generator folks. This is going south. The utility industry alone will be having fits about this.

Doug Ford wants you to forget the Canadian military was called to help LTC seniors who were in crisis during the pandemic. He wants us to forget what the military found. Over 4,500 SENIORS & 13 STAFF DIED, UNDER DOUG’S WATCH. Doug Ford's incompetence killed thousands of Ontarians. #cdnpoli #onpoli

I hear a flushing sound coming from Ottawa… Please help make this happen. Likely not something that would happen but let’s get a ton of signatures. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Now that we are back to regular weather programming I planted pea seedlings in the hoop house and little lettuce seedlings and radish seeds in the greenhouse. Incubating some Oaxacan Pasilla pepper seeds at 32c in water till they sprout.

Best navel orange we’ve ever eaten. Now I know why these are Jane’s favourites in her Garden.

Happy Valentine’s Day! We celebrated by picking our first bunch of citrus ever today. Washington navels, Satsuma mandarins, Mandelos (the BEST! A pomelo x mandarin cross) and Meyer lemons.
