Good friends for a fireside supper at home. Yes, fireside! Has turned cold again in our kooky Southern California climate. .

Early morning light on Foxen Canyon. Going on ten years here now (gulp!) and Im still gobsmacked by the beauty of my morning drive. God bless this amazing country.

A welcome-home Baby Birdie bouquet of #rancholazaca garden flowers for our sweet friend and now mother-of-3!@briecromer We love you!

Our darlin’ friend @mollybrownballantine ‘s beautiful table last night…

Wore my best bathrobe and almost matching tiara to the #royalwedding. On reflection should not have worn tiara during the day, not to mention white. #WhatwasIthinking?!

Just loved it. Sweet, warm, dignified, inclusive, historic, and the MUSIC! #standbyme #royalwedding #magical

There is power in love… Love God. Love your neighbor. And while you’re at it, love yourself. … Many waters cannot quench love. … Love changes lives and can change this world. —Bishop Michael Curry, Presiding Bishop and Primate of the Episcopal Church (and former #northcarolinian) He rocked the royal wedding—my favorite moment.

First cuttings from my viburnum, finally blooming after 3 years and in a rather awkward gangly phase, but i love them as a mother can. Hope your weekend arrangements bring you joy. .

Inspired this morning by @elizabeth_gilbert_writer post of a random encounter with #inspirationonarock , I remembered my own surprise along the #caminodesantiago just days ago, as I contemplate a jump—though it will be a while. Not ready for discussion yet, just allowing a glimmer in, and this Rumi wuote appears, as a wink amd perhaps a nudge. I believe these loving and supportive forces of the universe are everywhere if we open our eyes and hearts to them, and that God has a wonderful sense of humor. #camino2018 #frollye #frollyetravel #theway #trustthecamino #thecaminowillprovide

Back in my studio for a Sunday afternoon doodle and readying to work on a commision this week for @cabanamagazine and so excited!!!
