3 things I did this summer: 1) visited Leonard Cohen’s grave & thought I wouldn’t break down. (Broke down.) Wait… did the rest of the summer matter as much? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Sure it did, at some point, somewhere.

Found this lone Monarch caterpillar in my milkweed patch and moved him/her to a mesh butterfly cage for safety. We have few Monarchs in this area, and most of the caterpillars in my garden are taken by predators if I don’t get to them first. Will release after metamorphosis. #Monarch 🦋 #Butterflies

I’ve been wearing the same kind of eyeliner for 33 years & now it’s been discontinued. I’m a cat-liner style person & I could wield that brush with ease, even in a moving vehicle. All eyeliner is not created equally & now I need a replacement. 😩 This won’t be easy. RIP, Maybelline Ultra Liner. 🪦

Beautiful monarch butterfly is in the garden egg bombing the milkweed like crazy & sipping nectar from zinnia & lantana. I had to run in because the mosquitoes are really biting this morning, but I’ll go out egg hunting in a bit! If you grow it, they will come. #gardening #pollinators

My first case of blossom end rot on these baby tomatoes! Gross. It’s a mystery plant, because I can’t remember what type it was. It’s planted far from where I usually grow the others & they’re all fine. Wonder what I did differently to this plant. Maybe I over fertilized. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #gardening #🍅

It is HOT in NYC. Headed to 94, but with the humidity it’s already a real feel of 100. 😮‍💨 The feral cats have melted like ice-cream. Monty opts for the shade tent today & Angie takes the roof of the oldest cat house. Heavy rain expected at some point.

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

The President of the United States just threatened to have me arrested, stripped of my citizenship, put in a detention camp and deported. Not because I have broken any law but because I will refuse to let ICE terrorize our city.

His statements don’t just represent an attack on our democracy but an attempt to send a message to every New Yorker who refuses to hide in the shadows: if you speak up, they will come for you. We will not accept this intimidation.

That Trump included praise for Eric Adams in his authoritarian threats is unsurprising, but highlights the urgency of bringing an end to this Mayor’s time in City Hall. At the very moment when MAGA Republicans are attempting to destroy the social safety net, kick millions of New Yorkers off of healthcare and enrich their billionaire donors at the expense of working families, it is a scandal that Eric Adams echoes this President’s division, distraction and hate.

Voters will resoundingly reject it in November.

Gorgeous female monarch butterfly excitedly danced through the garden & egg bombed the milkweed. I collected 25 eggs before I sweat to death & came inside. I’m sure there are more… caterpillars don’t last in this yard (wasps & tachnid flies), so I’ll raise them in an outdoor enclosure. 1/2
