Day 23: autumn & dropping by spur of the moment
I am one of those people who don’t mind friends dropping by unannounced. In fact, I kind of prefer it over making plans. I get a giddy feeling that although quite spontaneous, there is an element of thoughtful engagement as to whom the person should visit. Today I called my friend Talia to see ifContinue reading “Day 23: autumn & dropping by spur of the moment”
Day 22: Storytelling at the Table

Day 16: Stress & Eating
When I get to write about the joys of prepping, cooking & eating there is this surge within me, because it means life is good. Not just that life is good, but the reality of how we are intended to live from the inception of the Garden. However, when I’m ill with a cold, theContinue reading “Day 16: Stress & Eating”
Day 15: Top 10 Cookbooks
I thought I would mix things up and actually place the day I’m on in the title. Shortly after giving birth to Tay, I checked out so many cookbooks from the library it became “slightly” overdoing it. I’m happy to report that I have come to a place in life where I have learned howContinue reading “Day 15: Top 10 Cookbooks”

What better way to close the weekend or begin the week then to share some food links, be it food stories, recipes or on eating: Kristin Schell: simply put, that I think the world of this lady and friend and you should go meet her.
