I have a small pot of funds ($291 CAD) set aside that is earmarked for mutual aid, specifically for a person/family that suffered losses from wildfires in “Canada” this summer & could use a little financial boost around the holidays. Please let me know if you know of someone!

I had so many more things I wanted to post, say, do this month. Alas, life had other ideas, my plate was full with other things, and time flew by. The main thing I want my beloved 2SLBTQIA+ folks to know is: YOU ARE LOVED, YOU ARE VALID, YOU ARE IMPORTANT, YOU ARE RADIANT.

Happy Pride Month, everyone!! 🌈🦄✨ Things are really scary (like, REALLY scary) right now. In times like this, it’s even more important to focus on the beauty, the love, the laughter, the joy. So here is something that I hope brings a little smile to your face!

Yesterday was an EXCELLENT nudi day!!!! 5 species in under an hour, and then I had to leave the beach because my lil cute neurodivergent brain got overstimulated 😵‍💫. Hoping to get back out a bit today or later this week - I hope you can go explore at low tide too!

Visited on of my favourite places today - @SalishSeaCentre! Saw some lovely creatures & the seaweed exhibit, including beautiful pieces by Jackie Hildering & @SarahJimStudio 🤩 Of course I had to wear my Seaweeds Midi Dress! (Available in my shop if you want one too!)
