I'm not sure how it happened, but here we are on the cusp of the first long weekend of the Summer—or at least we are in Canada. ❤️ 🇨🇦 ❤️
Other than gardening I don’t have any major long weekend plans—the weather has finally cooled down a bit after the heat dome, so it should be a nice weekend to spend outside, be it in the garden, on the deck, or out with friends.
As to the rest of the Summer, here's a look at my personal Summer bucket list:
What about you? I’d love to hear what is on your Summer bucket list, be it creative or otherwise.

As to the rest of the Summer, here's a look at my personal Summer bucket list:
- As many fresh flowers in the house as I have vases to put them in
- Tomato sandwiches on hand-built plates (heartburn be damned!)
- Swim in as many lakes as possible, and at least two of the great lakes—Lake Superior really is the superior lake IMO, with Lake Huron a close second. I’m prepared to fight you on this
- Porch time—lucky me I have two to pick from
- Expand the garden a bit more, just a little I promise...
- Make pesto—after a fierce battle with some nasty leek moths, the garlic should be ready to harvest soon
- Bike downtown to eat gelato and try and pretend I’m back in Italy
- Read the stack of books I just picked up from my favourite local bookstore
- Start to tackle my insane reclaim pile (anyone wanna help?)
- And last but not least, some studio time of course. 🤓
