By early April I'd skipped the UK for the (slightly) warmer climes of Dalmatia. As ever, southern Europe is a cornucopia of botanical delights. Ground-pine Ajuga chamaepitys was very common, covering lawns, roadsides, hillsides and even walls. Dreamy plant 😍

Good morning, Bluesky.
“Maybe I’ll learn to sew
Maybe I’ll just lie low
Maybe I’ll hit the bars
Maybe I’ll count the stars
Until the dawn
Me, I will go on.
Maybe I’ll settle down
Maybe I’ll just leave town
Maybe I’ll have some fun
Maybe I’ll meet someone
and make him mine.”

A catless writer is almost inconceivable; even Ernest Hemingway, manly follower of the bullfight, lived waist-deep in cats. It's a perverse taste, really, since it would be easier to write with a herd of buffalo in the room than even one cat. ~Barbara Holland

Greetings from Kyiv,
with warcoffee during another regular power outage.
Somehow, I’ve grown to love this ritual of coffee outside.
It’s not about desperate acceptance of reality –
it’s about love for life.
