Congratulation on the reissue. The new cover is a very fun design. And now I know where to get a book on worms which actually sounds quite interesting to me!
Worms: A Love Affair
So several years ago, I wrote this book about worms. There were no such books on worms at the time--in other words, there was no sort of narrative natural history that told the story of worms and earthworm science and the role that worms have played in ecology and agriculture and human civili...

As with most forms of arts and crafts, the degree of skill and mastery of floral arrangement varies from the casual hobbyist to the legendary artists. This, together with the natural beauty of even a single bloom, makes the genre interesting. You don’t have to be a professional to stroll into your yard and snip these ephemeral works of art for your home. Continue reading

The King's Speech and a stroll in The Regent's Park gardens.
We just made it to the cinema in time to see The King's Speech before last night's Academy Awards Show. Like a lot of people, we thought it was a beautiful movie and deserved the Oscar. Impeccably acted, crafted and produced and despite us all needing a break from the weather right now, it also perfectly captured the cold and damp of winter in England.

The Tropics, Oak Park, Illinois
The Oak Park Conservatory was built in 1929 and is owned and operated by The Park District of Oak Park. It has over 30,000 visitors annually, an interesting history and many friends and supporters.
