A happy garden surprise!

I’m still dealing with car repairs and the writing deadline. We’ll see our little one later when we drop off the car, which is thankfully totally repaired. But in the meantime, I had a happy garden surprise when I went out to water: a swallowtail caterpillar. Nerd that I am, I’d give up the entire parsley plant if that would maan more butterflies! We only had a few last year, and I’m hoping this year will be better. Have a great weekend, and please don’t forget, CLIFFSIDE KIDNAPPING hits shelves on July 1.
