Dale Chihuly said: “I never met a color I didn’t like.” The Chihuly exhibit at the Meijer Gardens in Grand Rapids, MI is just stunning.

A large row boat in the middle of a lake in the middle of a greenery filled Japanese garden. In the boat are a lot of large pieces of sculpted glass - in yellow, green, red, blue, etc.

There are big elections all around the country this November so we’re writing postcards to be mailed in October to remind folks to get out the vote! #BeAVoter

Spending some time volunteering at @angelaknapp.bsky.social’s school today - so grateful she gets to teach her kiddos in a safe space! #pride

Red UTLA (Union) sign that says this office is a safe space for immigrants and behind the sign which is clipped to a window blind is a small pride flag

LOS ANGELENOS! Tomorrow is the last day to vote! There’s so much at stake: governor & mayor primaries, comptroller, school board, several propositions, etc! Please please please either drop your ballot off at a ballot box or at your polling place or vote in person by tomorrow evening! #BeAVoter

Election season is in full swing so we’re adding another sign to the yard! This one is for @kennethmejiala.bsky.social, who is the incumbent running for City Controller in LA. He’s a CPA, a financial watchdog, & backed by UTLA. 6/2 is the last day for voting, ballots were mailed last week! #BeAVoter

A grey garage with 2 white outlined windows, a black planter box with yellow and purple flowers next to it. Next to the planter box is a campaign sign that says Kenneth Mejia for controller vote June 2, 2026. A photo of a corgi wearing a yellow vest is next to the wording on the sign.

The OG Prince of Persia I got to play on my dad’s office computer when we’d stop in on weekends for him to check on the trees (he worked for the DNR). I died in the game constantly but loved it…

Sarah Knapp@sarahlknapp· May 2

It’s election season again! And this time we get the chance to vote for @nithyaforthecity.bsky.social (she is an LA City Councilmember but not for our district)! June 2nd is the last day for voting, ballots were mailed this week! #BeAVoter

A yellow yard sign with blue and white writing that says “Nithya Raman for mayor vote June 2nd for a city that works!”. The sign is next to a small yard Pride flag. The sign is in a yard of sad grass in front of a grey garage wall.

Nature break. Very thankful to the bird or animal who planted this Mexican sunflower in my yard.

An orange and black and white monarch butterfly on top of a bright orange Mexican sunflower bloom. The flower is against a white fence.

Sarah Knapp@sarahlknapp· Apr 12

Also, this year I made the decision to not plant sunflowers. First time since moved here. And yet…one decided to sprout anyway.

Mexican sunflower with lots of green branches and leaves and 3 orange flowers. It’s in a succulent box looking out over an inground pool and a grey house with a reddish chimney

I can’t grow much (I’ve given up on vegetables) but since moving into our house almost 6 years ago I’ve propagated 16 jades from 1 very sparse plant I rescued from a neighbor’s porch after he moved in with his son. They make me so happy! 🪴

Close up front of my house including 2 small reddish steps leading to a brown door with an oval window. To the right is the grey house with white trip and a big bay window. There are 4 pots of jade plants in the front of the window. 2 in smaller green pots but 2 large in brown pots. In the window is a union sign that says United for LA Schools!

Still getting ready to pack up the posters & the lawn chairs & the cookies to be ready to be on the strike line Tuesday if LAUSD doesn’t do the right thing…#UnionStrong

It’s Opening Day! The @tigers.bsky.social are in California! Let’s go! #RepDetroit

A navy blue flag with the old English d on it in white and the word Tigers on it below in white. The flag is hanging vertically off of a flagpole extended horizontally from a house in front of a white garage. In the background, across the street is a very tall palm tree. The person posting this picture had to try several times to get the flag to hang straight but nevertheless she persisted!

Just online via my account page, which has been unavailable all day…here’s hoping the machines at the station work!

Text saying TAP is Temporarily Unavailable- Purchasing a TAP card and adding fare to your card is temporarily unavailable. We are working to resolve this service. Please load fare at a TAP Vending Machine or at the farebox on the bus.

And then it says the same thing in Spanish.

If you commute in LA, you might see the BEIS x Chipolte billboards...finally looked it up & yes, yes it is a $48 BURRITO CROSSBODY BAG. HUH.

Silver cylinder purse-type crossbody bag with a long strap being held by a white woman's hand. The white woman's torso is shown too - with blue pants and a white crop top, showing her belly button. It's a lot.

Stood alongside @angelaknapp.bsky.social & all 8 unions in LAUSD today to demand they prioritize students, schools, & education workers. @utlanow.bsky.social members have had 14 bargaining sessions with LAUSD with almost NOTHING to show for it. So today WE showed up for teachers & kids!

Two white women with brown hair and sunglasses on the tops of their heads wearing red tshirts and holding a red fully staffed schools now sign. They are in front of a large group of union members holding aloft union signs.

Back in August of 2022 I made a bunch of new friends when I directed my first film! It has been an amazing ride that started in 2021 and is just now wrapping up! We will premiere our film Laughing Again this FRIDAY online for everyone to watch! I cannot wait for it to be out in the world!

One of my favorite movies is Bull Durham. It’s got an Oscar-nominated screenplay & it’s a rom-com about baseball. This book by the writer & director was a terrific read, full of fun facts about his coming up in the minor leagues in the 1960s & a lot of behind the scenes of making the film!

Cover of a book with green grass and a red fence with a giant bull cut out on top next to a water tower. The title in white reads: the church of baseball - The making of Bull Durham: home runs, bad calls, crazy fights, big swings, and a hit by Ron Shelton

Seems like a great day to get a mammogram AND #RepDetroit! Go Tigers! #OctoberIsBreastCancerAwarenessMonth #BuiltForOctober

I’m trying to feel helpful & remind folks that there are fall elections, including a very important one here in California. I know writing letters won’t change the world but I do know that words have power & I’m working with @votefwd.bsky.social to harness that power for good & for change.

White paper with blue words that say vote forward thank you for writing letters with vote forward! On top of the paper is an envelope that says Sarah k and vote forward in the return address corner (upper left)

Sarah Knapp@sarahlknapp· Sep 27

Highly recommend doing something fun for yourself this weekend. This morning we went to a fall succulent workshop at a nursery. For an hour we were just focused on what little plant goes best where and how not to burn our fingers with the hot glue. Bonus: it was rainy! We got a little wet! In LA!

2 white small gourds with mostly green and purplish succulents glued to the top like they are growing out of the tops.

Out early this morning to support @angelaknapp.bsky.social & all of the LAUSD families alongside @utlanow.bsky.social! #UnionFamily #WelcomeBackLA #LosAngelesStandsWithImmigrants

Year 5 of growing sunflowers in Los Angeles…they get smaller every year, no idea why but still pretty!

A bright yellow sunflower with green leaves and stem that is in a flower box outside against a light pink brick wall. The sunflower is about 2 feet tall.

So proud of my sister, @angelaknapp.bsky.social, who presented about school climate and safety at yesterday’s Board of Education meeting!

A brown haired white woman in a dark red blazer wearing black glasses and a black kn95 mask standing a podium in front of a microphone. The text on the photo says LAUSD Board of education climate improvements: school site presentations. There are also pictures of various students and adults at a middle a ho. The adult are all wearing bright yellow safety vests.

Highly recommend checking your vaccine status and getting anything you can updated while supplies are available. My sister @angelaknapp.bsky.social and I did COVID boosters today which you can get every 6 months. Flu vaccines are still available for this season as well!

My sister @angelaknapp.bsky.social is out there this morning doing the work. The LAUSD teachers’ union is reassuring students & families that schools are safe spaces for all during drop-off. Thank you all.
