    This stuff smells amazing! Vanilla and Jasmine, strike the most beautiful note in this medicated moisturizing hand lotion that I make by winging it on the homestead. I mix a bit of this and a bit of that, on dreary days like today, in the kitchen to create something that smells good but more importantly…

    Pikku, the dog, is a bit of a handful. Partly just because she is huge. Partly because she is all sass and teenage doggy angst. Very sweet, good heart but what a naughty one. We love her very much though certain issues have come up. The issues for tonight I wanted to talk about is,…

    The weather is still off stinking… I can’t believe it. I have never seen a July this ugly. The humidity is absolutely suffocating…. It is sort of raining… I have been busy studying herbalism, reading In The Woods, by Tana French, for book club, hanging with my doggies, doing the usual homesteading junk. Frusterated over…

    This morning, was a book club brunch tea meeting. For which I made baked pear. This is so simple. The only tough part is scooping it out to create the bowl. Then just wipe it with olive oil, sprinkle a coating of brown sugar. Bake it at 350 for half an hour. Fill with granola…

    One thing is guaranteed, when you keep goats.  They are endlessly searching for a way out of their enclosure. Endlessly putting in a concerted effort to even invent one. Here, they have opened up a hole in the fence that they can stick their heads out of to yell at me if ever I am…

    The air is heavy outside, making it hard to get proper air into your lungs. But it smells of freshly cut grass and flowers, and even in some places in the yard a little bit of honey. The gardens are doing their thing. They are not in it alone. The wildflowers are just beautiful this…

    First, I would like to apologize again for abandoning my poor abused blog. I do try to keep it. But life gets in the way… This time it was my phone refusing to take pictures that shut it down. So now that that is sorted again, I hope to be here a bit more often…
