TALES FROM THE BOBBI LAMA

It’s definitely a record-breaking heat dome hitting right now with real-feels over a hundred. The cool dry spring and all my favoritie gardenia blossoms are long since done blooming just ahead of Mother’s Day… except this year. On Father’s Day this year (last weekend), there was a single, unexplainable gardenia on the gardenia bush. It is way too hot, and way too rainy for one to bloom two months after blossoming season ended. (I have to wonder if Jack’s spirit, with his famous sense of humor, had something to do with this as he would always make jokes about Father’s Day being much more important than Mother’s Day!) I must say that that gardenia had an unusually strong fragrance filling the room like I don’t ever remember a single blossom doing before… one might describe as “heavenly.”
