Why Houseplants? Portal to important people and memories

Does anyone share or trade plant cuttings anymore? Houseplants … I know it’s a different topic for me, but I’m feeling nostalgic and simultaneously attempting to rebuild my plant collection.

#4HWW Impressions and Inspiration

I rarely blog about best-selling books, but I just finished reading The 4-Hour Workweek (#4HWW) by Tim Ferriss, and it got me thinking… I chose to read it because it is referred to over and over by many of the writing and productivity bloggers and podcasters I follow. #4HWW permeates my Twitter feed. Tim Ferriss …
