I love the sweet, predictable rhythm this time of year takes on for me. It starts with our getaway to the shore. It continues with the blooming of the peonies. And the using of the summer linens (cherries and lemons and kitsch!) There is my birthday, a family bbq, strawberries, the first outdoor breakfast of […]

Oh, there is so much to catch up on! I was away for a four-day weekend at the shore, which was very nice as it always is, and now I am sitting here looking at laundry, an empty refrigerator, and a handful of projects that needed to be done “yesterday.” I suppose that is the […]

I found this salad years ago in one of my old favorite books, Vineyard Seasons by Susan Branch (used copies […]

We had a beautiful weekend here, filled with family, celebrating, day-tripping, and beautiful weather. Eamonn had his First Communion on Saturday, and on Sunday Neil suggested we take a trip to New Hope, PA. New Hope is just the kind of tourist-trap town Neil (along with the little men we live with) don’t particularly care […]

Thank you, if you commented on my last post, emailed me, or posted on Facebook. It meant a lot to me.
