weekend nuggets

  • Father/Daughter camp out for American Heritage Girls was a fun success, albeit a wet one. Thunderstorms and tents aren’t a fantastic combination and I think they were more than a little glad that a trip home for David to do his shift at UPS before breakfast was concluded with hot pancakes and sausage at home before heading back for nature walks and tree talk!
  • W said this morning, “Dad…one part of my gah (his blankie) smells like Beef Jerky. Wanna smell?”  Um, no.
  • we’ve had long hours on our porch swing to sit and daydream and chat this weekend. In a lot of ways this week revealed marvelous relief and in others, bittersweet changes. I’m grateful for the time to process it together.
  • Baby went all the way down the zip line by himself!!!! Then begged for more…
  • In the garden, the lettuce is bright green and bushing out, the peas are climbing high, the corn is about a foot and a half tall, the carrots are thick, and there are tiny green tomatoes on a few bushes.  With its smell of clean straw and wet, green growth it’s one of my favorite places to be.

    Tia, it all sounds lovely! Congrats on your garden, and I will look forward to that English muffin recipe. Funny, because I was just wondering the other day how I could make some!

    Love, Misty
