Locals food is so yummy. I had some @teenasprideheirloom tomatoes and some pesto from @bottegaladolcevita (y’all it has a touch of honey and is to die for if you ceramide it a little bit). I like to turn each tomato face down and I couldn’t get that last little one to turn! I couldn’t let it go though. 😂

For dessert I had some yogurt and peanut butter with lingonberry jam and longevity powder I made from @cookingforpeanuts. Look at this peanut butter.

You can get Teena’s pride online and at Legion Park and Vizcaya markets from @urban_oasis_project. You have to go to the market for the MANU peanut butter. It’s not online yet.

My husband and I have lived near @bottegaladolcevita for 15 years and somehow never knew about them. I feel so sad for us and overjoyed we know about them now.

Parked at the bottom of 27th last night. I’m not sure what building this is, but their streetscape was nice. Mature (although shocked and distressed) trees, leaf litter, natives, understory. Of course my preference is not to shock trees at all and to take a long, hard, realistic look at development in our city, but if they’re going to go ahead and do it, this would be better and would actually improve properties. This needs to be the citywide minimum. It’s not that expensive.

Make this the baseline for any new building and backfill incrementally. Done. Next?

Does anyone know who did the design and does the maintenance? Nice work.

Katrina Morris came to the Miami City Commission this morning with a study from 1984.
Not a petition. Not an emotional appeal. A peer reviewed scientific study from a researcher named Roger Ulrich published in Pennsylvania 42 years ago.
His finding: a tree view outside a hospital window produces a statistically significant reduction in the length of hospital stays, pain medication usage, and minor complications during recovery.
A tree outside a window. Statistically significant. In a controlled study.
She asked the commission the question that should hang over every permit, every chainsaw, every removal notice posted on a Friday afternoon.
“If just having a tree outside a hospital window can show a statistically significant difference in recovery time, what can having adequate tree coverage throughout our city do for the well being of residents, workers and visitors?”
She said developers may offer buildings with luxurious interiors. But nature is becoming a far more valuable luxury. And one that is rapidly disappearing.
“Anyone can scrape a lot and pour concrete. It takes upwards of 50 years to grow a specimen tree. Now that’s a luxury.”
She called for halting the removal of all specimen trees and building a robust urban forestry plan. She said we have a chance right now to look back on this period with pride that Miami worked together to build a climate resilient city that other cities look to for inspiration.
We have that chance. The question is whether the people at that dais will take it.

These protein pancakes from @shona_vertue ‘s book, The Vertue Method have been a go-to of mine for years now. You just blend bananas, oats, and egg in a blender and then cook the batter like pancakes. That’s the base - then you can add protein powder for more protein (I skip it), cinnamon, vanilla, whatever you like.

I did use a duck egg for the additional protein, and added a finger of turmeric (both from @urban_oasis_project) because I’ve been dealing with some inflammation. I usually also add ground flax seed for the fiber and nutty taste, but forgot today. That’s ok! I made little snack balls with plenty of flax seed, so I’ll have a couple later today.

I love to top them with plain yogurt and some jam (this one is lingonberry). Yum!

“Would we allow a series of strip mines in the middle of our neighborhoods? Because essentially that is what we have.”
This is Katrina Morris speaking at the Miami Historic and Environmental Preservation Board hearing on May 5th. Not a politician. Not a lawyer. A Miami resident who has been watching this happen since 2017 and has had enough.
She said what everyone knows but nobody in power will say.
Developers buy a lot. It has existing trees. They draw the building footprint straight through them. Then they apply for a waiver as if it is a matter of course. As if removing a specimen tree is the default and preservation is the exception. When it is supposed to be the other way around.
She called for a moratorium on all specimen tree removals. She called out the impact fees as inadequate. She connected tree removal directly to the public infrastructure costs being loaded onto Miami taxpayers through bonds and public works projects.
“In 2017 it was too much. Now it is ridiculous.”
223 tree permits tracked on MiamiCanopyWatch.com right now. 122 involve removal. 69 specimen trees. 77 linked directly to development. Built by residents because the city would not build it.
Katrina has been saying this since 2017. We are finally all saying it together. Stop the Madness

Miami’s tree defenders are meeting in person.
Two weeks ago this movement was one letter and a Banyan tree post. Today it is 500,000 views, a live public permit database, a CBS news story in production, hundreds of constituent emails to city officials, and a community that is organized, documented, and not going anywhere.
Now we are sitting down together.
Monday May 11th at 6:30PM the community is gathering to discuss how to maintain Miami’s urban tree canopy and how to file successful appeals when the city comes for your trees. Because knowing how the system works is how you beat it.
This is not a protest. This is a training. Come learn how to fight back effectively.
WHEN: Monday May 11th — 6:30 PM
WHERE: International Center for Tropical Botany — 3959 Douglas Rd, Miami FL 33133
Preserve canopy. Empower appeals. Your voice matters.
The city has lawyers. We have each other. And now we have MiamiCanopyWatch.com.
See you Monday.

Good day. Lunch at Chez Hilde with @hildelisajacoba down on the Beach. Also got to see @srfrgrll72 and Bambi. Despite the rain, it was nice to be on the Beach. I just don’t get down there that often. ☀️🌊

Then I had the pleasure of attending a community meeting in the West Grove. We have a chance to do the right thing here. Together we can do it.

If you haven’t tried duck eggs, I highly recommend them. They’re super creamy and have double the protein of chicken eggs, if you’re into the whole protein thing.

I had some leftover Jamaican rice and beans from the earth day festival, added a duck egg and made a quick slaw with apple cider vinegar, yellow mustard and chopped up hot/sweet pickles. Delish.

You can get duck eggs from @urban_oasis_projectdelivered, along with a huge selection of local and regional organic produce. Eat well and support local growers and entrepreneurs. It’s a win/win! Oh, and did I mention the prices are great (or at least comparable or less than to Whole Foods)?

I got to tour four farms yesterday on the @fertileearth Inaugural (No Bus) Bus Tour (you had to be there). What a treat!

Stop 1. @agriretreat - this place is gorgeous. Little hideaways created from reclaimed building materials are tucked amongst fruit trees and lush Florida foliage, along with a saltwater pool, sauna and multiple gathering spaces. It’s completely my aesthetic. My jaw was on the floor the entire time.

Stop 2. @earth_lingfarm_inc Built into the landscape, with earthen roofs that keep the temperature nice and cool, we enjoyed our choice of a yoga session or an architectural tour (I chose yoga, but will be back for the tour). Then we built terrariums in the shade house. I was too involved in experiencing my time there and forgot to take a picture of my terrarium, but I love it and will definitely make more!

Stop 3. @lionfarms_ for their Earth Day Festival. Lion Farms never disappoints. They had a whole bunch of market stalls scattered through the garden. I got a hula hoop from @whirlwindhoops, some nasturtium and biochar for my garden from @cultiva_miami, and some baddass lion’s mane ceviche from Chef Chrys of @dunnsovertownfarm. I also got to pick up my Spring copy of @ediblesofla.

Stop 4. @fertileearth This place gives me hope. There are solutions, folks! We have the tools to repair and regenerate our soils. We haven’t managed to kill everything off yet. Nature is incredibly intelligent and resilient. The direct relationship between humans and flora and fauna is incredibly beneficial. I challenge you to spend a full day in nature amongst plants and not notice this.

Fun was had by all. @oceanalligator, @thejoycenterllc, @divaej1 and more (I’m bad at getting people’s contacts. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Happy Arbor Day, Miami! 🌳✨
Living in the Magic City, it’s easy to focus on the blue, but let’s hear it for the green! Trees are the unsung heroes of our tropical paradise. Here’s why we’re giving them some extra love today:
🌡️ Beating the Heat: Miami’s “urban heat island” effect is real. A healthy tree canopy can lower surface temperatures by up to 10-20 degrees!
🌀 Storm Protection: Mangroves and native trees act as natural buffers, protecting our neighborhoods from wind and coastal flooding.
🌬️ Fresh Air: They’re the city’s lungs, filtering out pollutants so we can breathe easy.
🏡 Energy Savers: Strategic shade can cut your AC bill by up to 30%—a true Miami win.
Whether you’re planting a native Gumbo Limbo or just enjoying the shade of a Banyan, let’s protect our canopy! 🌴💚
#ArborDay #MiamiTrees #KeepMiamiGreen #Miami #conservation
Are you planning to plant a native tree this weekend, or do you have a favorite shaded spot in the city to share?

As per usual, it’s pay-to-play in the City of Miami. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to charge maybe a sliding scale for those who can afford more, but I don’t see how this is catering to artists. And yet it’s being touted as a place to get access to philanthropists. If I were the philanthropists, I would insist on there being a free/low-cost tier for the actual artists. Just saying.

I just had an insurance billing company tell me that they can’t make outgoing calls to insurance companies. America is a hellscape.
