Are these even tulips? Forgive me. My speciality is food, not flowers. A gift from my valentine purchased from . Each day these tulips transform into a more beautiful position. Day 5 is what in flower years? One should be so lucky to age this way. Forever fan. Clutch my pearls, I’m overcome!..

I’m rendering suet I purchased a couple of months ago from to make a tallow hand balm for my kitchen hands. This is one of my ‘Winter Projects.’

Throughout the year, I keep a running list of ‘Winter Projects’—a mix of tasks for my business and activities purely for fun and curiosity. After all the holiday hustle, and when January’s slower pace arrives, I dive into these projects. Working at my own pace and on my own schedule. I have never made hand balm from animal fat before and I don’t know if it will be successful, but that’s not the point. This time helps me rest, recharge, and rekindle my creativity for the year ahead. Our dog, Dory, likes it when I’m in our home kitchen too. …………………. …………………… …………………………… …………………… …………………….. ………………

Our dear friends and of have launched their to fund a new barn to wash, pack and store produce on their recently purchased farmland. If you know - their beautiful produce, the wonderful people, their ethos of community and commitment to stewarding land - you need no convincing that this is an exciting opportunity to invest in their small business.
For those who don’t know and , we’re excited to introduce you to their Kickstarter campaign! After 15 years of farming in our region they’ve finally found land to call their own in Loudoun County, Virginia. Investing in their project is an investment in healthy land and water stewardship, in a more resilient local food shed, in the building and sharing of farm knowledge, and in people invested in making their community a better place. What could be more important? Please visit their page, watch their video and donate what you can! Deadline is January 6th. All together now!!

January means more cooking at home. Made these chicken & biscuits on a whim last night. It was hearty & bright with the addition of smoked peppers pickled in vinegar. A summer preserve. I’m trying to appreciate the slower days.
