The Perseid meteor shower is a great time to give

The Perseid meteor shower is a great time to give stargazing a try as it produces around 90 meteors an hour at its peak and you don't have to bear with the cold weather that you would during the Geminids (in December)! This year's peak is August 12, which unfortunately for us also aligns with the Full Moon impeding its visibility, but don't let that stop you! The Perseids are already underway, so you should still be able to see a few if you catch a clear late night/early morning – the sooner the better! Happy stargazing! ✨

If you're in the need of more incredible plant ins

If you're in the need of more incredible plant inspo, I thoroughly enjoyed "Fantastic Fungi" (@fantasticfungi) on Netflix. It's a fascinating documentary about fungi, so if you're new to the idea or only know of mushrooms specifically, I highly recommend it. Mushrooms are really just the "tip of the iceberg" and there's still so much we have to learn about them! Let me know what you think if you give it a watch!

Couldn't help but piggyback off the last post! Ros

Couldn't help but piggyback off the last post! Roses are one of the oldest flowers, so there are tons of different kinds, and so many interesting facts to share! Most people know of their use in perfumes and fragrances but aren't always familiar with their medicinal or food uses. Rose water and rose syrup for example are used as unique flavorings in many types of cuisines and sweets. If you're ever read "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe" by C.S. Lewis, you've probably heard of Turkish Delight which commonly comes in rose flavor!

Last year I was tasked with deadheading some roses

Last year I was tasked with deadheading some roses at Groff's Plant Farm and after begging to keep the spent blooms, I got to work creating a simple potpourri for my colleagues. I've always loved plants and went into more detail on my blog (link in bio – post titled "A Potpourri of Memories") but wanted to quickly share my go-to potpourri recipe. It's pretty adaptable and can be extra-rewarding to use what you have on hand, but if you need extra recommendations, definitely take a look at the blog. Let me know how it goes if you give it a try! 💐 Enjoy!

LeVar Burton is one of my heroes for his work on R

LeVar Burton is one of my heroes for his work on Reading Rainbow, and Butterfly in the Sky is about exactly that. This documentary covers the importance of children's literacy and how folks in public television impacted that during the show's incredible 21-season run. I immediately added this to my list of things to watch and can't wait to see it. Little know fact: I used to have a children's television show on Storer Cable Channel 4 in Dover, Delaware called The Dragon's Tale. It featured books and was very small, but so much fun to do! Did you happen to see an episode?
