I was sitting out on my back deck this past weekend, wrapped in a blanket, clutching a hot cup of tea, because I want every last afternoon I can enjoy out there before it’s too cold!

This is fun. In the upcoming municipal election, kids can learn about democracy by voting for the Tree of the Year. There are even candidate profile pages for each tree.🍁Saplings of the winning tree will be given to schools and in public giveaways. ❤️ #TorontoElection #TOpoli #Toronto
A flyer with info explaining how kids can vote for Tree of the Year during the Toronto municipal election. There are short candidate profiles for each tree.

Wow. This butterfly has seen things. #butterfly #bugs #photography
A monarch butterfly on a plant with purple flowers. The butterfly’s right wing has a ragged edge and a large piece of the wing is missing.

My husband said he saw four people in just a few blocks using shovels, brooms, and … hockey sticks. Peak Canada.

Swan says Lake Ontario. #LakeOntario
Even the swan knows it’s called Lake Ontario. The swan is swimming towards you, with the lake stretching out into the distance.

Still #LakeOntario. Always beautiful.
Lake Ontario, with the horizon in the middle of the image, so there is endless water across the bottom and endless sky across the top.

I took this photo in my garden.
Close shot of a monarch butterfly feeding on a purple flower on a butterfly bush. Only the butterfly’s wings are visible (its face is smushed deep in the flower as it enjoys breakfast).

There's something poignant about the CBC airing the last Tragically Hip concert from 10 years ago tonight, on today of all days.

No cats, but can I offer you a soothing lake? Hope your day is better.

Barrel with flowers and a Canadian flag, sitting at the end of a dock, with a lake and a far shore of green trees in the background and a blue sky with just a few white clouds above. A beautiful day.

Last wedding invitation I got included a link to a list of do’s and a dress code. It said women had to wear floor-length dresses in one of the colours in a colour palette provided. I concluded that I was not being invited to a wedding — I was being invited to an Instagram shoot. I didn’t go.

No disagreement about the earlier history. But the reality is that for many, many people, it’s a symbol of hate. There is no reason to share it when you know it’s profoundly distressing to many people. Why not choose to spare someone the pain of seeing it?

Hello again, @chicagovtfloor.bsky.social Are you planning to keep this post that includes swastikas or will you delete it and apologize? I’m shocked to see it from your account so would like to think you simply didn’t see it in the design — but your lack of response is making me wonder.

The bee liked it.

I grew a mutant hydrangea that is bigger than my head.
A huge hydrangea bloom with a measuring tape next to it, showing that it’s about 11” from top to bottom. The other blooms visible are about a quarter of that size.

Better yet, take a walk in the snow — complete with the crunch of footsteps on snow, plus chickadees and deer. Your Canadian friends got you. bsky.app/profile/elke...

Mother’s Day may have been last weekend, but it’s still Mother’s Day Month. 😃 It’s also a long weekend so my kid treated me to a wonderful afternoon tea at the AGO. Delish. #longweekend #VictoriaDay @agotoronto.bsky.social

My friend is a teacher of littles and she is now seeing them try to turn the pages of a physical book by tapping the lower right corner. When she talks to the parents they claim they read at home every day. Guess it’s on a tablet.

Having cancer is neither brave or a fight. It is a cruel & unrelenting disease. You just have it. And your outcomes are because of the incredible medical treatments available. To state that someone bravely fought it implies that those that died were neither brave or fought hard enough. Stop this.

I love visiting @agotoronto.bsky.social. The art’s amazing, the building’s gorgeous, even looking out the window is inspiring.
Looking through a window at a winter scene of a city park, with a large tree in the foreground and tall buildings in the background. Photo is taken through a fine mesh window covering, creating a filtered effect that makes the photo appear as if it’s aged.
