The sun has set and it's not yet 4:30! The days have been grey, but every evening the horizon hosts a brilliant pink and gold sunset, fading in the west to a gentle dream-like purple. It only skims the skyline below the grey cloud, but it is beautiful! My window faces the west. We … Continue reading Entering the Dark time with Company
Hello and I hope you are well! It has been awhile. I am SO inconsistent, especially because I have been drawn into a place and time sans social media or blogging or even e-mail. Of my own choosing...

But for now, my nose is running and my feet are damp. I feel like watching The Ken … Continue reading Preparing Shop Orders & More Snow
S P R I N G 🌿 Rejoice, rejoice! It's cold outside with a north wind. I'm sitting on a cushion on the floor while the animals sprawl out on the couch. I felt like just doing a quick post, to share a few pictures of our last weekend of winter. Despite the cold and the wind, … Continue reading Last of Winter
N O S T A L G I A Since I was a little girl, nothing seemed so appealing to me than living deep in the woods, immersed with the plants, the cycle of the moon, the animals. The dirt swept clean with my broom and the leaves entangled in my hair. I wanted to … Continue reading Making Magical Tinctures ☽ 🌕 ☾
So much snow fell on us yesterday. Our windows were covered by 3 pm, our world grey and dark. We have been having unseasonably cold temperatures, it feels more like we've been plunged in the depths of January and early February. I talk a lot about the weather... my journal since I was a teenage … Continue reading Homespun and Winter Walks
