I’ve been so busy doing things and going places that I haven’t had a moment to chronicle any of it. It’s kind of getting me frustrated, but that’s how I typically react to not having what I want - in this case more time. I’ve made some notes and I swear I’m going to carve … Continue reading Time is short

Sweetness
I made some granola Saturday and used almost the very last drops of a jar of honey that I bought last spring while I was in Germany. I say "almost" because I intentionally saved a teeny bit for a soothing cup or two of tea (with bourbon and lemon) that I will savor during my … Continue reading Sweetness
