Good morning!
It’s Thursday, and the milkweed cafe has reopened for another season. While it was ostensibly established to feed the monarch butterflies, we don’t have any yet. But we do have an abundance of swallowtail butterflies.
So they dine instead. The restaurant is full, the nectar isn’t wasted, everyone’s happy.
“That which you give to another will become your own sustenance; if you light a lamp for another, your own way will be lit.”
—Nichiren
Onwards we go,

Let's meet for mid- morning coffee at the Milkweed Cafe. The Swallowtails say it's just grand!
There are so many bright butterflies that we miss by being busy in our own lives. We need to stop, look and listen to nature.
