I've been *dying* to show off the new blank canvas I'll be creating a suburban garden in. I can't help but think of Hive Gardeners like @anggreklestari, @owasco, @livinginuktaiwan …

If there's one thing I'm good at, it's being aware of spirit/mind/body/breath. I *should* be, after years of practicing yoga and various meditations. I always wonder how I'd be rig…

*I've been sitting in the soil of the fiddle leaf fig for a long time. I don't mind. I come from the land of dinosaurs after all, so being under the great leaves of the fig feel…

We’re about to call Anglesea home, and on this day we're here to collect the keys for the first time for our new property, and are killing time by the river mouth and the sea. As m…

There's something lovely about a playground in the winter sunshine. I was there with my son and my grandson in a small park in Kensington in Melbourne's west. The kid is pretending…

Absolutely LOVE the start of the month - everyone seems excited to show off their gardens for the Hive Garden Journal challenge. In the southern hemisphere, Spring is here, and i…

 Sometimes it feels unbelievable to me: I’ve …

I've been thinking *alot* lately about human behaviour, and the *root causes* of why we behave as we do. I think it goes a long way to understanding, shifting blame away from the …

I feel like I *should* be posting this for the Hive Garden Garden Journal Challlenge, where we all write about our gardens at the beginning of the month. However, I was in my garde…
