Found this beauty outside 💕

My Friday night is wilder than your Friday night. Learning about plant constituents and getting up close and personal with my monograph plant for herbal medicine foundation course - the gentle but mighty lemon balm 🌿😍

This has really cheered me up today

Ooooo hello unit 2 of herbal medicine course 🌿👩🏻‍⚕️

As brilliant as the quality time is with Evie, non-stop toddler care is hard and I had to take myself out for a walk. And I came across this right there in the garden - the Rosary Pea. Absolutely beautiful but deadly. What a find! It may be poison, but what a beauty.

So excited about my mum reading this with me and chats/platicas about it 🙂

So I want to spend more time outside but have no time to do it. Would a portable laptop desk, Internet dongle and power pack in the woods or on a hill be a totally mad idea? Could WFW (working from woods) catch on?

Thanks to my mum for capturing this mega cuddle moment with my little Evie 💕 Mums are usually behind the camera capturing moments - happy to have this little memory 🥰

Yes, this is real. Spotted on my way to the park with my two year old 😐

And we’re off! 10 hour solo flight with a two year old and this lot. Totally fine, right?

Snacks and aspirational reading for solo 10 hour flight with 2 year old tomorrow. CBeebies also downloaded in its entirety on iPad. Send strength, patience and luck.

Violet and Ted repotted before mum goes away for three weeks. Mr C in charge of keeping them (and Katherine, Evie, Tom, Ruth, Bellatrix and Ivy) alive while me and the small one away 🥺

This has been sitting on my bookshelf for years and I just couldn’t get into it. Now I don’t want to put it down. Different seasons, different books.

New school textbook 📚🤓🌿

What a book. One to pass down to Evie.

Christmas present from best boss ever @mdcomms ! She knows me well 💚

My course textbook has arrived 🙂 I not once felt this excited about a textbook throughout school or university.

Eeeeeeep so excited! 🌱

Well, this is pretty cool. Here’s to the next 500 and beyond 🚀

Is it possible to be in love with a book?

I love how even on the coldest of winter days, you can still see next year’s spring peeking through 🌱
