I had been dreaming of going to see those gardens, but I didn't know about the trolls. Wow! Now my travel dream is turning into an action plan ... Thank you so much for those images!

The trolls are a sight to behold. My two year old son said they were his favorite part of the entire trip (even more so than the pool, lots of ice cream, and a huge candy store!).

Some really great recs this week! I’ll be looking into the “millow”. Recently realized that these cheapy IKEA pillows we’ve been sleeping on have been in our lives for far too long 🫣

Thanks, Morgen! I know some people like buckwheat pillows but apparently (according to my husband's research rabbit hole) they can be kind of noisy, which people don't like. It's embarrassing how attached I am to my pillow, honestly. Like I debated even sharing because I was like wow, this might be overkill for a pillow?? But it saved my neck!

This actually makes me feel so much better. I feel like I'm about a month behind getting things in the ground. This spring has been so weird, but I've spent the last couple days in the garden and am planning the same for today and whatever hours I can spare this weekend.

I swear, all of my gardener friends have said something similar! I think it's been weird weather + the state of the country that has just made us all a little out of sorts. I just blocked off an hour and forced myself to get all my corn, beans, squash, and sunflowers planted FINALLY, so I do feel much better!

Thank you for the link about hummingbird feeders! I needed the kick in the pants to clean mine.
