Busy day culling books from my library- interesting to see what titles have been carted all over the planet that feel like old friends. If you want to know somebody’s obsessions look at their bookshelves. If they don’t have any- get the fuck out of there…

What’s with the deluge of arsehats in the last couple of days? Updated my settings

Fulfilling my hankering for curly fettuccine tonight. Sauce has been simmering for a few hours. It really is the simple things. All is well

The mangoes have well and truly fermented in the heat- this little guy is getting hammered

Mood today at the beach

Lads just chilling at work (dude on the roof looks busy though)

Cal was telling me all morning how delicious the broken wood was that I made for Christmas. I thought she meant the Bûche de Noël - turns out it was the rocky road. Makes sense. Will forever be known as broken wood in our house-

Protect your energy like your ex protects their excuses

Cool change after days of merciless humidity - grateful 🙏- every year I forget how brutal midsummer heat is

Kevin does not like flowers in his web. He has spent all day in a hopeless battle as he unwittingly built his masterpiece directly below a tree filled with flowers. Poor Kevin.

Who had “Germany protecting Europe from the Nazis in 2026” in their Bingo cards?

When I walk into my local library and see all those ideas and dreams that embody our collective consciousness everything is alright- remember who we are in the face of all this shitfuckery…

Be more like Marvin- he was real

And beyond the hiking trails is the beach and I would be living a love story that took my breath away everyday- girls gotta dream big

Rest

Took Calpurnia to a gig last night- she lasted half an hour 😂. Turns out it wasn’t how loud the music was- “It was all the people Emily- their feelings were too loud.” She was right.

Summer
