We’re all okay this morning. Thanks for the expressions of concern. No significant damage but it was a crazy night. I’ll tell the story when I get some time today.

Power is out. I get to use my hurricane lamp! Also, we have plenty of candles around, being pagans. 😂

Tornado warning, so we’re all in the creepy basement for the next twenty minutes or so. I hope everyone stays safe tonight!

Rachel just reminded me that I had a Tabasco sauce tie collection in the early nineties. I loved loud ties in my teenage years. She thought I was cute. 😄

This morning, my 78 year-old mom called to tell me she has the flu so I’ve been talking to the pharmacy and the doctor all morning to figure out what we need to do. And then I got pulled over on the way into work and given a warning for speeding. So the last three hours have been a hell of a day

Come and get it! I used Kent Rollins’ recipe. So easy.

Solstice ashes have been spread on the garden. Equinox fire is burning.

I didn’t get to have my Agent Cooper coffee and cherry pie at the diner I stopped at the other day. (They were out of cherry pie.) But Rachel took pity on me.

Our town had a successful tornado siren test last week. Then, days later, we had a tornado warning as a ferocious storm came through and the siren didn’t go off. Then it went off randomly at just after midnight today, on a clear and lovely night. So all is going well here.

Resolution: fall asleep in the sunshine more often
