Angels do exist. I know this because she came to me. With goat cheese….that she made from her own goats. And her name is Susan. Her daughter goes to school with Logan. She has been reading my blog and really sensed my desire to have spinach pie. So, like the…
Here is our studio. It’s separate from the house and behind it are hundreds of acres of state forest. This is where I teach flute lessons & Earl writes his music. Here is Earl. He’s working on a new arrangement and he’s VERY focused. I needed to ask him something,…

About a year and a half ago I took up running. If you knew me in my previous life (and by that I mean prior to January, 2010), you would put me in the same category as “the rapture” guy. NUTS! There was a point in my life when…
This year we joined a farm CSA (community-supported agriculture). We pre-pay at the beginning of the growing season and each week, for the next several months, we pick up a box of fresh, healthy, goodies (pending good weather, of course). We have raised beds and grow our own vegetables at…
