Today’s flower: dandelions. They may be considered a weed, but are cute in their puff ball state. And the flower is excellent bee forage. 🌱

On the Dejus YouTube channel: while taking photos of flowers, I captured four short clips of slow motion bumble bees and a honey bee. 🐝

There is only as much justice in the world as those who are in control of the world care to permit, to enable affairs to run smoothly.

As mentioned yesterday, I’ve started a series of posting a flower picture each day. A little thing to bring a moment of much-needed joy to the world. Today, some small flowers (not sure what kind) below a stone frog garden ornament. 🌱

Now that I’ve done several #MediaMonday posts, I’ve added a page to the Dejus site to collect links to them in alphabetical order, grouped by media kind. The page is always available via the sidebar from the “hamburger” icon.

An excellent weekly podcast about the business side of indie development: “inspiration, design, marketing, business, trends, and tools – everything but the code”.

On the homestead blog: yesterday I did some smaller homestead projects, including building a shelf above the door in the new chicken coop, and repairing a gate pole of the old chicken run. 🔨

There are lots of flowers blooming around the homestead at present, so I think I’ll start a daily series of flower pictures, starting with some from a couple months ago. Here’s a flowering cherry tree from April. 🌱

We watched the launch of the first manned NASA / SpaceX Commercial Crew flight, on their way to the ISS. Exciting, historic, nerve-wracking stuff.

Last night’s pepperoni pizza, cooked in my Ooni Koda oven, made with sourdough for the first time. More chewy than usual. Not sure we liked the whole wheat component, though. 🍕
