    I planted my seeds 10 days ago... a little late for zone 5b. Most of them have sprouted now! Yay!

    There are different varieties of tomatoes, Alpine strawberries, bell peppers, and basil. I’m going to plant the other vegetables directly in the ground in late May/early June.

    I also have to protect our garden from our new puppy (an 8-month-old devilish Bernese Mountain Dog, my lavender has already suffered her ravages). I really love this time of year, but I don’t have much time!

    I saw Saltburn recently; the trailer really got me excited, but I was disappointed by the lack of narrative depth and the overly rushed pacing.

    The acting and the sets are incredible, though, and some of the dialogue made me smile, but I was mostly disappointed by the lack of explanation regarding the main character's motivations.

    Hello there, I always wanted to try this game and your list made me think about it again! I really like rogue-like games and I remember watching a few videos about that game back in ~2017.

    Since is it one of your personal recommendation, this is the game I'd like if I win. Thanks and Happy Holidays :)

    I've been using the Withings Scanwatch for less than a year. I chose this watch for the look first and for its 'smart' features second. It does track my sport sessions okay and count my daily steps with a battery that last for around 20 days.

    I've heard horror story regarding the watch durability (often broken after the warranty period), but I'm happy with it for now, and hopefully it will last with good care :)

    Thank you for the thoughtful reply! The facts that you are mentioning are eye opening and I still have faith with Atamifuji :)

    I don't think I've seen Kayo fight yet, but since you're mentioning him, I'll be watching ! However, I am afraid with Wakatakakage's performance... he didn't look fully healed last basho and this bout (against Kayo) proves it.

    Anyway, why can't we start the basho now? :)

    A good read on the state of sumo and possible improvements for the health and safety of wrestlers during training and championships. The limited visibility of foreign fans is also discussed.

    I can't wait for the tournament to start next weekend, there are so many interesting stories to come in this tournament: will Kirishima become Yokozuna? Will Kotonowaka reach Ozeki. Will my little protege Atamifuji maintain or improve his M1 rank? Onosato' debut in the top division will be interesting. Same goes with the return of Hakuoho and much more!

    I empathize with the employees at Figma whose enthusiasm is turning into disappointment, yet as a customer, I'm relieved.
