Back to life

"Yesterday, the Pacific glistened like an electric blue Otter Pop. I felt like I was in Maui or Lebanon or something. The sun is hot, but the breeze is nice. My tan is coming along."

I've never met Molly Knight, but she's a good friend of the Weegee of the Southwest. I have no idea what an Otter Pop is, but Molly Knight makes me want one.

I can settle for the summer revival of my shamrock plant, which in days has jumped from one surprising stem to many. Moving from the corner this month to help the visiting basil and ZZ plants, the shamrock likes the sun more than I expected. Which means the shamrock should also be friends with the new blue sofa, soon to come, elemental and in the sky.
