And another thing.

I’m a mom and a Rhodesian Ridgeback mom, and I live in Hanover, NH with my human, plant, and animal family.  I love plants and gardening in the eleven minutes of summer that we have in New Hampshire. If you are absurdly into dogs and particularly Ridgebacks then check out @ridgeback_woods on Instagram for no content whatsoever about international relations or East Asia.
