I was doing my almost-every-day-garden check this morning, minding my own business, when I encountered some drama in the form of an unexpected and unwanted intruder.
I was looking for red tomatoes and for any damaged leaves. I found some of the latter and as I reached down to remove them, I saw a particularly thick branch. Upon closer inspection, I realized, that was no branch!! It was the dreaded tomato hornworm!
I am showing you a photo of the tomatoes, not of the perp! Because, focus on that which you do want!
Hornworms have destroyed my tomato plants in the past so this time, I am determined to keep the upper hand. I researched a bit online and found some useful information here:

Many years ago, when my son was starting kindergarten, we lived far enough away from school that he needed to ride the bus to get there. My husband and I took turns walking with him to and from the bus stop.
While I drank coffee and watched Anthony, my husband struck up a friendship with the West Indian woman whose house was on the corner.
Her name was Cecily. She was often out working in her beautiful garden, and my husband was also a gardener, so they had this in common. They often traded plants back and forth (e.g. dug things up and gave them to each other).
Cicely had a giant, mature Japanese Maple tree that covered a third of her corner lot.Keep reading

Welcome to this month’s Holistic Practitioner Interview with Rachel Horton White, Hypnotist!
WHO are you?
I am a mother of two energetic young children and wife to a talented musician and carpenter. I grew up in Portland, Maine, but did not always live here (in fact all I wanted to do was get out of Maine as a teenager)! When I was a junior at Wellesley College, I studied abroad in Dakar, Senegal. Based on the kindness, generosity and compassion I learned from the Senegalese, this experience changed my life and created a deep desire within me to help make the world a better place in some way. After teaching English in Guadalajara, Mexico after college, I went into non-profit management as a career, and got a Master’s Degree in Public Administration from the University of Georgia. I worked for social services agencies for about 10 or so years. I got married, had my first child, and then my second child. Then I started to feel very burnt out of my helping profession, and got back in touch with my spiritual/intuitive roots (with much encouragement)!Keep reading
