In fact, most of the colourful garden lupines are the offspring of those developed from 1911-1942 by the British horticulturist George Russell (1857-1951). The British tend to refer to them as lupins. I’ve always added the “e” to mine, given that’s how the North American clan are usually spelled. Who doesn’t love lupines? Or lupins, if you like. If you’d like a little 4-minute bedtime story, have a listen to me reading it to my granddaughter Emma. Third, it honours the essential gardening impulse to “make the world more beautiful”. Second, it’s a story about enchanting lupines. I have a particular fondness for the award-winning book Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney (Viking, 1982). Not Sorry- That I don't always get along with everyone. Falling in love with the idea of a person, instead of the actual person. Some things are best left to the experts, and hair dye is one of them. At-home highlights and DIY hair extensions. So many moms and teenage daughters don't get along-we just have to realize it's nothing personal on either side. After her rise and fall from early childhood stardom, barely eking her way through high school, a brief stint as a Hooters waitress, going through thick and thin with her mom/manager, and resurrecting her acting career as Santana Lopez on Glee, Naya emerged from these experiences with some key life lessons- Sorry- All those times I scrawled I HATE MY MOM in my journal. Whether it's with love and dating, career and ambition, friends, or gossip, Naya inspires us to follow our own destiny and step over-or plod through-all the crap along the way. Navigating through youth and young adulthood isn't easy, and in Sorry Not Sorry, Naya Rivera shows us that we're not alone in the highs, lows, and in-betweens. Funny and deeply personal, Sorry Not Sorry recounts Glee star Naya Rivera's successes and missteps, urging young women to pursue their dreams and to refuse to let past mistakes define them.
