A Homemade summer vegetable stock is delicious year round and I finally posted my go-to recipe... Writing thus post made me crave hosting dinner for friends. Something about soups and pastas well and a good charcuterie spread... I always want to make those three entrees when people come by. Which recipes do you reach for when hosting? Bio link for recipe. Xx
Soaking up all of our one on one time lately. Take a pause and give a little extra love to the friends, fur balls and loves in your life. Give a ♥️ toward someone you’re thankful for.
I think this about sums things up. Amos is learning to care gently for the chickens and no matter his presentation they love him because he brings them their treats every day. Justin recently bought the chicken food and I learned that they definitely have preference of pellets and they love when add scratch. We restocked today at @bigrstores ... check out the stories to see the organic brands we prefer.
I shared coffee with a friend this morning and as it does, the conversation turned to thoughts about life. I mentioned how I feel that its comparable to a series of whirlwinds. In my mind, maybe influenced by my desert upbringing, I envisioned how a dust devil picks a thing up off of the earth and then releases it. In a set of the storms, one might let a thing go and another whirling of the air would pick it up to send it back into itself, tossing about. Scientists refer to the eye of the storm as a false calm. Over the course of the last year I believe I’ve subscribed to the idea that there is only the whipping of the spiral or the feeling of a false calm. As I scrolled through old photos this afternoon, I was reminded that there are real calms. There is tangible change. There’s so much goodness to be had, to dwell in. I love the dwelling.. it’s what I’m made for. For the ones still reading, I may not see you and I may not know you but if the whirlwind feels big and like the dust will not settle, remember that the dust always returns to the earth. The desert is created to calm and cool at the end of each long, hot day. The wind always breaks, the storms disappear and the calm is left in the cooling of the night. With you.
