About Me

I am a mother of two, homeschooler, gardener, singer and enthusiastic cook. I love reading, and I can’t decide if I most love breathtakingly beautiful days when the color of the sky or the glow of light on the leaves is just perfect, or gray, drizzly days when it’s so nice to curl up with a blanket and a knitting project or a good book.

It’s so hard to write about who I am with brevity and sincerity. So here are some pictures to give you an idea:

My beautiful little garden in June. I grow mostly veggies, but I added loads of flowers last year. I hope to have a big, big garden space someday.

I am not a food photographer. But this is an amazing salad, and I love sharing it. It’s basically the reason I grow kale. Here is the recipe I started with, but I leave out the walnuts and raisins and swap the cheese for Parmeggiano Reggiano to keep things simpler.

The kids at one of our favorite spots in the woods. I love having these two around all day.

We do a lot of art and music in our homeschool, and I love the way it allows us to more deeply engage with the material. This is my playdough Parthenon.
