A chronicle of an organic life. Since I visited Monticello, as I read, I can see the different rooms, furniture, and the gardens as they are mentioned.
Random thoughts and anecdotes on cooking, critters, gardening and life on our small city lot. The night before Thanksgiving we decided to sacrifice one of these beauties and take it for a test run. It was great, sweet and dense without a bunch of excess water. I surfed about in search of a recipe and found one that fit the bill on Epicurious.
This is a journal, of sorts, of an organic garden in SW Michigan. On life in the milk lane. My baby with the one and only bottle baby on the farm, March 2010. February has come and gone and it occurred to me that I have been a milk. Someone closer to 50 than 40 can hardly be called a milk.

Living in a Lovelier Light. Nomad in The Land of Milk and Honey. Still, finding myself piece by piece . My advice to the signs. Somebody loves you, somebody cares. Honey, sometimes other people are right.
Keeping a grip on reality. Gary Oldman as Winston Churchill. Kristin Scott Thomas as Clementine Churchill. Ben Mendelsohn as George VI. Lily James as Elizabeth Layton. Ronald Pickup as Neville Chamberlain. Stephen Dillane as Edward Wood, 3rd Viscount Halifax. Nicholas Jones as John Simon, 1st Viscount Simon. Samuel West as Anthony Eden.
