I was absolutely thrilled that California received so much rain this year. Not only have we been in a horrible drought, but I haven’t seen the hills so green and vibrant in years! The frequent rains also brought us a Super Bloom of flowers from the coast to the deserts. The colors and varieties have been absolutely outstanding, but the unfortunate side effect is that we are all suffering from pollen-induced allergies! (more…)
