Do you want the little news first or the big news? Alright, the latter it is – Big News: we are revamping our business acumen and to do so, we need to take a break…likely until October. I know. Big. That’s a big chunk of free floating Rollson’s with no income or safety in anyContinue reading “Tuesday 2 Do & Big Happenings”

Everyday feels both more surreal and more grounded as we focus on our place in the world. We’re here for the apples and the sugarbush, we’re making friends with the rampant rose, and we’re occasional acquaintances with wild strawberries and sunchokes. We invite some of the insects to join us – certainly the dragonflies andContinue reading “Tuesday Happens”

I don’t know if it was the lack of Winter or the lack of Spring (type weather) that makes this Summer feel like it’s flying – I can’t believe it’s Goldenrod-time already! We do a lot of time-by-seasonal-shifts: there is crocus-time, dragonfly-time (Josh’s favorite as they dip and dive over our rolling little hill afterContinue reading “Happenings on a Tuesday”

It’s been a bit since we’ve had anything happening that was worth talking about! It’s been a wonky Summer – tentative visitations and stepping gingerly out into the world. I feel a bit like Punxsutawney Phil, though I have to tell you, I think there may be 6 more weeks of Winter: I’m going backContinue reading “Tuesday Happenings”

Thick breezes blowing hot air around there – focusing on inside things where it’s a bit cooler. The child is making a lot of arty bits today at our new giant art table that Josh customized for us (paper roll on the end, shelves for her at one end with fancy organizing boxes, the sameContinue reading “Tuesday Happenings”

What’s happening around these parts? It’s green. Really green. The forsythia, violets, and apple blossoms have passed. The first wave of dandelions have seeded, and the daffodils are done. This is the green spot before the rest of the daisies open, our late lilac blooms, and the wild rose explodes (but only for a shortContinue reading “Tuesday Happens”

One minute it’s Winteresque and feels like the snow on the North slope will never melt, and the next it is lush and on the cusp of Spring overgrowth! We mow a little less so that I can forage in certain places (non-chicken spaces) and so that magickal goodness has time to grow and flowerContinue reading “Tuesday Happenings”

The weather has truly been co-operative and lovely lately. A real full Spring, which is rare around these parts; generally we have a lot of rain and maybe still some snow and the last frost is no joke. And because things are a little different, we might struggle later on (if we don’t get ourContinue reading “Tuesday Happenings”

The pasta is made for this week’s specials: Gold Beet & Thyme Gnocchi, Red Beet Farfalle, and our house favorite – Classic Gnudi (cheesy little pillows of goodness). Josh’s beautiful Sourdough Boules are cooling on the racks, while the newly popular Oat Breads are baking nicely. Bagels and Flatbreads are done. And we are wooingContinue reading “Tuesday Happenings”
