About Alexandra Heep:

Alexandra Heep is a longtime writer, chronic over-thinker, and recovering content mill survivor. Her work has appeared in literary journals, anthologies, and online platforms where words are still respected. She writes children’s books, health reflections, and the occasional blog post laced with humor and hard-won honesty. After years of illness, detours, and navigating the noise of modern wellness, she returned to writing with the firm belief that stories—like people—don’t have to be perfect to matter. She publishes under multiple pen names and drinks more goat milk than you’d expect.

May 2 is Naked Gardening Day


No, I am not making this up. May 2 is really Naked Gardening Day (you can research it, if you want). I think it's kind of early in the year though for a day like this. May is not exactly warm enough everywhere for something like that. Today it's actually 75 here in the Chicago area, one of the warmest days so far this spring. Spring being a relative term as we had freeze and frost not long ago and we have had a stiff north wind for like what seems forever. Today seems like a turning point.

Not that it would be feasible to do that anyway, unless you live in a very private area or the middle of the boondocks. The only naked lady you'll be seeing here is the one in my garden. Yes, there is a flower called Naked Lady. I was given one last year. It also goes by a variety of other names like Painted Lady or Magic Lily. Yup, it's the one you see in the picture.
