{this moment}
. . . . . . . . . {this moment} A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. If you're inspired to do the same, leave a link to your 'moment' in the comments for all to fin...
It looks like an amazing place! I can't wait to participate one year very soon! It is relaxing just to look at the beautiful photos... :)
Best,

postcards from A Taproot Gathering at Squam :: my roomie
I have had the enormous pleasure of spending the past day and night on Squam Lake with my girlie, Adelaide. A pleasure, a delight, a true gift really, to spend this time together alone as we've done. Looking for the fairies of these woods, crafting our hearts out by the fire...
can't wait to get this book into our little growing library collection for our little felix :)
it looks lovely!
Dream Animals
I was thinking I'd wait a bit before I posted the cover here, but lately the book keeps popping up here and there (the Publisher's Weekly Fall Previews, plus it's pre-orderable at Amazon & B&N!) These little hints decided it was time. Remember these snippets? They come from this book, my very...
Bahahahaha! That second photo just made my day! Too adorable :)
dance
(That pile of beams is a work in progress. Please ignore them in the middle of my kitchen. That's what I try to do.) The after dinner clean up/dance party tradition is alive and well here these days. And of late, the boys have had a little bit of help from someone who just ...
Hey Jordan!
I sent you an email the other day, but I have no idea if you still use that account (designhottlt@ etc...) I tried getting your contact from here, but the page does not want to load for me...so I thought I would try you here! :)
If you could email me (at my old email...the one attached to this account) that would awesome!
Thank you and hope all is well in your busy world!
hello.. [in a cupboard and 112 grams]
Hello.. I haven't touched my camera in weeks. The camera I yearned for, for so long. I want to carry it. I want to capture every moment on it, but the weight, and the thought of its constant presence has kept it on a shelf or in a cupboard. My iPhone camera has been my go to camera of choice f...
Moving on....
I've moved to a new space....please join me here... http://justbeanblog.blogspot.ca/ Continue reading

SoulePapa Blogs ~ late summer ~
“Can we go for a swim?” gasped Ezra, “I’m SO hot.” “Maybe later bud, we have some work to get done around here first.” “ARRRRRRRRRRGGHHH!!!…..it’s hooooot”, came his exasperated reply. The sweat poured and the oppressive heat smothered our every movement as the kids waited with child-sized ...
Can't wait for the newest issue to arrive! It looks lovely!
So excited and energized for Autumn...this will be the perfect reading material to cozy up with in the evenings when things have quieted down for the day :)
You all put out an amazing magazine!!!
RETREAT
Oh so perfectly timed with the quiet days we've been having, my advance copy of Taproot Issue 3:RETREAT arrived last week. This straight-from-the-press single copy has been passed around, dog-eared, well loved, and brought everywhere as I soak up what's inside. (Subscriber copies will be lea...
Wishing you all a speedy recovery!!!
Our son had a mild case a few months ago...the cough literally sounds terrifying! :(
I'm so sorry for you guys :(

where we've been
I haven't been sure how this particular chapter of our lives was going to fit into the space of this here blog. Because, I hope you'll understand, this Mama is very tired, and a wee bit vulnerable, and most definitely not up for controversy or playing the role of mediator beyond that of my five ...
You take "fluff mail" (usually cloth diapers) to a whole new level!!! ; )
Too lovely! : )
today's arrivals
{Papa's new favorite Silk Oak tee.} The turkeys are here! Today we got that early morning post office call that we've all come to love. As Papa returned with birds in hand, the turkey welcoming committtee was on standby. After some oohing and aahing, and just a bit of snuggling, Ad...

taproot::paths
I'm very excited to be holding in my hands an early copy of ISSUE 2::PATHS, our second issue of Taproot! For those of you who subscribe to our email newsletter, you've already heard these words from publisher Jason Miller's mouth, but truly, we feel as though we've 'hit our stride' with this i...
looks delicious! i think i will get lots of meal ideas from your blog! welcome to the blog world! : )
Braised Kale with Cannellini Beans and Walnuts
If you couldn't already tell, I love cooking with kale. Not only is it a delicious, nutritious vegetable with countless health benefits but it is also extremely versatile to cook with. Kale can be mixed with fruit into smoothies or baked into chips as shown in the previous recipe. This reci...

In bloom....
Lots of gardening has gone on here over the long weekend....wildflowers, lavender, & sunflowers have gotten their own little areas to call home. Our tomato seedlings have gone in the ground as well as beans & carrots! The whole backyard it seems has come to life over night....leaves have popped and flowers seem to be everywhere...it really is lovely. ....and most importantly...the hammock has found a perfect home!

loving the embroidered linens!
treasures found
It's been some time since we had a little thrifty show-and-tell, so shall we stroll through those Brimfield treasures I brought home? I was quite happy to be browsing the eye candy there, not entirely certain I would come home with much at all (oh, I do love our Maine flea market prices, I was r...
ha ha those photos are great!!!
chickens really do have a tendency to chase kids (i myself am a chicken chase survivor from childhood ;) )
mother's day plans were turned upside down by a trip to emergency care for our little one....all is fine now....just a war wound now! (learning to run, before learning how to properly walk has its' downside sometimes!)...he was a trooper! ...mama on the other hand may have fainted on the way to the hospital...good to know for future reference that i handle emergencies so freakin' well! ; )
on mother's day
On Mother's Day....vases full of 'flowers' delivered throughout the day, glitter glitter and more glitter on the handmade cards, freeing butterflies from the constraints of a six year old's bedroom, eating ice cream cones, getting the heart pumping with swarming bees, chasing chi...

hmmmmm....

I shall give this a go! Thank you for sharing!
Voted Least Likely to Love Working Out
I've been thinking about this post for a while, and after lots of percolation, I find myself in the year 2012 writing about an extremely unlikely topic: Exercise. *Note this is not an accurate depiction of Miette as my personal trainer - anyone who knows my cat knows he would be driving a full...
Planting, planning, cleaning, celebrating, organizing, & maybe sleep....
....these are the things that have kept me away from here for a while.... Lots to do lately....lots of changes....BIG (all good!) changes happening that I will share soon enough... Lots of yard clean up and planting has been happening too! We went ahead and started our seedlings indoors...very excited! We ordered tomatoes (black ones! super excited to see how they taste and turn out!), beans, & carrots this year (last year we think we went a bit overboard with excitement and planted too much) this year will be about keeping it simple. We still have two strawberry plants in... Continue reading

My guess is....SHEEP!!!!
I think the prospect of LOTS of wool is making you giddy! : )
....I am throwing the names Socks & Shaun out there...just sayin' ; )
coming soon
Forgive my absense here yesterday. I had every intention of showing up, but the day kept getting away from me, and well, I never did make it here. There was snow (what? snow?), and sick children, and goodness so very many things can sometimes fit in one day, can't they? But really what...
Spring is in the air...
Can you feel it? Continue reading

Harper looks like he is "in charge of the show" in that one photo...too cute! : )
from sap to syrup
We did a little sap boilin' yesterday. Normally, we save the boils for the weekends, when we can gather with friends, and make a proper and full day of it. Because, you know, it requires lots of people sitting around, watching the pot boil, to make good syrup. Good company helps, goo...
