this weekend
Oh, that was delightful. That was a real-deal summer weekend. The kind of days we think and sometimes dream about all winter long. The kind of days that by late winter - when it feels like all we've seen is white and brown, and the walls of the house, and ...
Thank you :) We tried setting it up so the seating looked out over the woods. The space gets wonderful light! Speaking of light your pictures are full of it.... beautiful!
ten things that make me smile right now....
1. an apartment suite that is clean and ready for guests, done in mostly hodge-podge miner family style. which is my very favorite way of doing things. it still needs fresh paint, but who has time to look at that when the outside is so green and pretty. 2. unpacking the craft supply b...
I can't believe I've never had this yummy crunchy vegetable. We all loved it both ways. Yum! And rhubarb mojito sounds amazing :)

You are right, it is delicious raw! I'd never had it before, but it will be in my garden next year. Such a yummy crunchy addition to salads!

I roasted some and also peeled them and ate them raw. Super crunchy, sweet and mild. Sort of like a cross between cabbage and broccoli stem. The kids *loved* them!

Doesn't it look like a wonderful class? I'm heading to read the first lesson/email today. Looking forward to documenting this new space we're in. And I'm looking forward to the cleanse next month! I'm all ready for it. And it's perfect that we'll be getting these huge leafy green veggie shares from the farm too! xoxo~

I roasted two bulbs with a handful each of red & white radishes. Just a bit of olive oil + sprinkle of salt & pepper. So delicious! Thank you :)

Thank you for the prayers.... I very much appreciate it. And yes, kohlrabi is wonderful raw! We're shredding it up in potato salad next time. Yummy!

I'm still really in awe about having a guest suite..... it's something we always dreamed of. It gets the most light in the whole house! Such a lovely place for visitors :)

Thank you Kendra :)
welcome to the sunroom.....
Let's be honest. Unpacking sucks stinks. Add the regular tasks of full time mama, homemaker, homeschooler..... along with the added task of solo parenting make it even harder. For all you mamas (parents in general really) that do this solo full time, you have my utmost admiration. I hoped to fi...
