Plants (and people) We Love

Above is my drawing in this week’s The New Yorker! After 40+ years, it’s still a thrill.

I did a similar one years ago that wasn’t bought by the magazine, sadly. If you live with someone, have you noticed how sometimest things start just appearing in the living room, and you don’t notice for a while?

We have one house plant, which I have managed to keep alive for a while. It looks like a cartoon plant that I put in my drawings.

I love indoor plants, but caring for them is not my forte. I prefer to look out the window at the plants that fend for themselves. But, like the woman in the drawing at the top of this page, I also am good at (or finding someone else) to water my husband.

It was very good today to hear President Biden warn Israeli Prime Minister Netanyau, telling him that he’s losing support for the horrible war he is waging.

Thank you for being here!
