Persimmon says chinga la migra

My youngest was out on the lake when she saw a mama grebe and her three babies on her back. Later, she produced this beautiful groovy depiction of the little family 😍🥹

Baked potato birthday cake 🥔🎂

Happy birthday duder. You don’t know it but you’d be 36 this year. I miss you so much today. You missed too much this year, I think. You would’ve been so hype about getting my first piece in a gallery. I bet you’d be encouraging to finish writing my books so you could read them. You’d be crazy jealous that I have a dog now and I know you’d spoil the hell out of her - y’all would be besties. You’re the uncle of a teenager! Our cousin, not little anymore, plays at Stookeys all the time now, and you’d love bragging about her to customers. We never got matching tattoos, which is rude of you. Q***r Eye imploded. You would have cried like a baby at Heated Rivalry. Lindsey Graham died and Mitch somehow didn’t, which I’d like to discuss with you. We have so much to yell about! You were so good at seeing people and caring for them - I wish I could’ve seen the community you’d have built by now. I’ve been cooking again, and it’s pretty good, but I ran out of your spices a while back so I can’t include a pinch when I want you there anymore so I just have to imagine it. I used your muddler for iced tea last weekend, though. I thought you’d like this random medieval instrument cover of your fave (you also missed me dressing up like Kate Bush for Halloween and your niece being obsessed with her.) The World Cup has been something, man. FIFA being FIFA. You’d love Haaland. We would’ve screamed together about Cabo Verde. Mom and I have been roasting Kane like crazy, you’d be howling in the group chat. France is playing Spain today in the semi-finals and I wish we were watching it together. I wish we were doing anything together. I love you. I miss you. Happy birthday Tommy.
