There’s nothing that perfectly encapsulates the essence of #summer for me like a fresh raspberry. Each berry contains within it all the sunshine, light and floral sweetness of a summer afternoon. At my childhood home there was a split rail fence along which grew a long row of raspberry bushes. Starting in early July, my brother & I would wake up early & run out to the fence to pick the raspberries that had ripened overnight. It was a race – us against the birds – and we often lost, but when we would find a ripe, untouched berry, the reward was more than worth the effort. To this day, the taste of fresh raspberries brings me right back to those childhood summers. ❤️

If you’re looking for a good beach read this summer, let me suggest Cocoa Beach, by Beatriz Williams. I was blown away by her masterful use of imagery; every single page dripping with the most beautiful, poetic language. Metaphorical brain candy! No one is who they seem and the fever-dream twists leave you guessing up to the very last page. If you love the Gatsbyesque opulence of the roaring 20’s, set within the cloying orange groves of Florida and glamorous Miami Beach, with flashbacks to the muddy battlefields of WWI France, then I think you’ll love this book. I did! I can’t wait to read more of her work. Have you read Beatriz Williams? What are you reading this summer?

Lavender farm to table. Here’s a little summer treat that I always crave this time of year. 💜

Just hiding out here in the jungle (aka the lilac garden, aka my happy place). But I wanted to pop in here quickly to share with you something that I’m very excited about: Over the past few months/years, a few people have inquired about purchasing some of my photographs. I’m honored and humbled, but until recently I haven’t had the mental bandwidth to even figure out how to make that happen. However, I’ve started to set up an online printshop where a limited number of select, still life images will be available to purchase. It’s not done yet, so I’m not including a link, but slide ➡️ to see a very tiny preview. 🌻

Never has a more gracious, kind or compassionate soul walked this earth. If only I could be half as selfless as you were. Fly with the angels, GG. 🤍🕊

Spring has finally made it to my dining room table.
