Not one, not two, but SIX trolls by Thomas Damon in one place. Yes! Filoli Gardens in San Mateo, CA. Had a lovely time earlier this week walking the trails to find them all, then grabbing a meal at the food trucks and listening to music.

Turns out that bricks of cash are very bulky. Here I am with $600,000 and I think I need a large bag to carry it!

If you are ever in Little Rock, visit the Capitol and inside there the Treasurer of State’s office. They will let you hold all this cash — but you have to give it back.

Still obsessed with bearded irises because . . . It’s spring and they are gorgeous.

It’s spring and the bearded irises are blooming in my garden! I really like these deep purple ones. All my irises were handed down from my late green-thumbed grandmother. #beardediris #iPhone

I think that is an iris, but sorry I don’t know details. I like it though.

Now this is a brilliant idea: smash together a chocolate-filled croissant with a big chocolate chip cookie. Oh wow — it gets two thumbs up! Found at the Farmers’ Market in Nashville.

Thank you for the compliment. I didn’t know about the NYT featuring bee photos for the spelling bee. I am checking it out.

Was in Nashville recently and stopped in to the Johnny Cash Museum. Cash had a 50 year career in music during which he recorded ~100 albums and 1500 songs! And he championed political causes such as prison reform, civil rights, patriotism, and empathy/support for those less fortunate. What a legacy!
