I'm on my way to the Senate floor to talk about the assault on my colleague, Senator Alex Padilla. This is a horrifying moment in our nation’s history.

A good batch of strawberries from the garden requires strawberry shortcake. Even for breakfast.

The Democratic Women’s Caucus calls it the “Big Bad Billionaire Bill.” 👍 @demwomencaucus.bsky.social

Thank goodness for the iris that stop me in my tracks enough to forget—for a few moments—all the things in the world I’m dismayed by, and remind me there is also incredible beauty right outside my door.

Exactly.

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development. Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system. Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care. Other states must follow.

Good grief. For a self professed “genius”, he sure says “I don’t know” a lot.

Please don’t fall for Amazon’s “Book Sale” on Saturday, which is shamefully calculated to undercut Independent Bookstore Day. Instead, please support your local bookseller or Bookshop.org.

Our resident poet @mhwack.bsky.social created this amazing list pairing 30 books of poetry with 30 teas from ArtfulTea. More than a labor of love, it’s a veritable feast! Enjoy! 📚🫖

I'm just going to leave this here while I remind you that the American Revolutionary War started 250 years ago this week on April 19, 1775...

May I also have a cup?

Just one of the many marvelous signs at today’s #HandsOff protest in Santa Fe, NM

I can hear my daffodils shouting: “We protest! We will NOT be beaten down!”

Grateful for the bits of beauty springing up.

I love a deadline. Especially that WHOOSHING sound it makes as it flies by. 💨

Definitely need an extra cup of tea this morning—while I try to figure out what time it is. ⏰☕️🫖

Fearless? Not so sure. But definitely proud of what our small, dedicated group of wonderful women has accomplished.

Full disclosure: I may have a significant interest in this tea store. 🫖 🌱
