City Chickens

Coop of the Rising Sun
The City of Sacramento unanimously approved the right for City residents to keep up to three backyard chickens. Hens, to be exact. No cockadoodledoos. And at my workplace, Talini's Nursery, we just started carrying these wonderful, embellished chicken coops made by Greg and Brian at Two Flew the Coop.

Sweet little passion vine

I have more "partial sun" at my house than I care to discuss, but it's a situation made more tolerable when I find beauties like this dainty, diminutive passion vine. It'll be planted out front, at the base of my small front porch arbor. I've already planted a pretty, peachy pink abutilon on the other side.
