Gardening kits for each of us! These adorable trowels, rakes, shears, gloves, and tin buckets all came from the dollar section at Target.
The finished product! Strawberry, pansies, parsley, and a jalapeno plant in the back.
Our indoor garden nook!
There's even some tiny strawberries starting to grow already!
We started the trip by taking the scenic route up the Cape and stopping off at the Yarmouth Zooquarium. It had the cutest petting zoo where we fed and petted all the animals.
It was a bit chilly for sunbathing, but we stopped by the beach anyway! The sand was lovely and the sun felt great, even if the water was bracingly cold.
The best part of the trip, besides simply being able to spend time together, was definitely whale watching! We got all bundled up (and froze in the below-freezing temperatures and high winds anyway) and spent a couple of hours out on the front of the boat, sometimes being the very first to spot whales!
This guy loved our boat. He was only about 12-15 feet away from us when this picture was taken!
Bra: unfussy but femme or bold and sporty.
Definitely necessary: boyshorts.
All dykes worth their salt own many a white ribbed tank. And wear them under everything. Positive dyke points if said tank is from a men's multipack instead of the single women's ones sold on hangers.
The shirt should be androgenous; popular choices include plaid and polo.
Jeans are requisite; straight-leg dark wash preppy or relaxed fit distressed casual.
Classic Converse are always a good choice: whimsical or bold.
Accessories are key. Proclaim the importance of equality with an HRC field bag.
A funky signet ring - worn on the pinkie (or alternately the middle) finger, a simple silver ring is considered by many to be lesbian code. 
And tell people who just aren't sure: fuck yeah, you're cool.
Feathers, jewels, tattoo, fringy shawl.
Chiffon and roses.
We made lovely masks for our next Carnevale event!
It also reminded me I want to collect more of Penguin's 70 Pocket Penguins, short stories published in 2005 to celebrate the publishing house's birthday. I wish I could get the whole set, but already have a few and it's tres expensive, so I might have to settle for picking up individual ones as I find them.
