I hope this thing is still on because I have a lovely little snack idea to share with you. I discovered it first, where else, Pinterest, but then I haven't stopped making it since. Whenever we n...
I've been carving out time to get back to hunting for vintage goodies these days (for the shop and for my home) and I finally had some nice treasures to share. These lovely bags made their way i...
I don't get to do this too often but we had a snow day today, out of sheer desperation to go through the motions of winter eventhough there hasn't been one to speak of in Southern Vermont t...
I was craving chocolate chocolate chip cookies the other day. I had tried several recipes before but none that really fet like "the keeper". So, I decided to just make my very own. Oh boy. ...
I dare you not to knit a whole stack of these. They are so fun! Such a great freebie from Poppies and Milk. A strand of these sewn to vintage lace would make the sweetest garland ever. Just sayin...
It's that kind of weekend here. I'm feeling a touch run down and we're all just nestled in and relaxing. I'm looking to the cats for inspiration. They're my relaxation Gurus....
I'm in the midst of a crafting flurry. Mostly, rather exclusively, for the shop. I'm just feeling very motivated these days and it's been very fun. I had my first run at a local festiv...
Have I mentioned that I love Pinterest? I'm telling you. You'd think that it would suck time and that you'd end up spending more time pinning than doing but for me it has been an incre...
Remember when I mentioned I had another freebie pattern to share? This past fall I knit up one of these cowls and it has become my favorite knitted accessory. I wear it all the time, with or without ...
So far the knitting trend for 2012 is hats! I'm busting out lots of hats because I have quit a stash I'd like to start busting. This is another Honey Hat. It's such a delightful, quick...
Still knitting, still farming, still keeping super busy! I apologize for abandoning this space. We are all ok! I didn't intend to worry anyone and I am so thankful for all the emails and comment...
Our 52 (!) meat birds are ready. Lots and lots of very exhausting work ahead of us. Greg and I do it all ourselves. You can read my post about our first time doing it last year. My feelings are still...
{Jorn's embroidery August 28, 2011} Just checking in really quick to let you all know that we are all fine. All of our critters and our home weathered the storm very well. Our poor town and surr...
I am getting about 1 gallon of cherry tomatoes every day. That's a conservative estimate. This year I planted Sun Gold Cherry Toms. We are really loving them. I always freeze a bunch whole to be...
So, we went to a friend's house for dinner a few nights ago and wouldn't you know it, we came home with a hamster! His name is Pancake and he is the sweetest little thing. He's rolling...
This is Willa. She's in the shop too. I am just having so much fun making these so bear with me and all the shameless self promotion just a little while longer, will you? ;)
Fergus is in the shop and in search of his forever home. He's a touch nervous about the whole thing and so I am but I am sure when he finds the right place he'll settle in just fine. He...
It's not the biggest haul we've had but it certainly is special. Those are the first potatoes we've ever grown! What a fun crop. Still lots more in the ground. We'll certainly mak...
Between all the pickling and preserving I've been doing lately I am surprised I haven't worn a rut right through the floor in the kitchen between the sink and the stove. I looked up from th...
I've been carving out some time to add some goodies to the shop the past few days. The buttons have been selling like hot cakes! I just adore antique buttons and these are truly lovely. Remember...
{I like his perspective} {i love him} For the record, I am not headless. Although sometimes I feel like I am losing my mind. Maybe he hears me say that too often and this is his artistic interpretati...
This year we planted Royal Burgundy and Gold Rush Bush Beans. I have to say that it's really nice not having to hunt for camouflaged beans and so far the yield and quality has been just wonderfu...
We just returned from a week at the Jersey Shore visiting with our parents who live just one block from each other. What fun! The beach was amazing, Island Beach is such a jewel. I'm still catch...
Oh boy. I have been busy, busy doing what needs to be done to begin preserving both our own harvest and the local harvest that surrounds us. In the past month or two I've put up 18 pints of our ...
{june 4th 2011} {june 15th 2011} {july 17th 2011} I have my tomatoes and tomatillos planted, separate from my other garden, in an area next to the chicken coop. This spot used to be covered with Bish...
I just updated Red Comb Vintage with some goodies! I was lucky enough to come across a bunch of vintage fabric squares all cut to the same size. I always wonder how the original owner intended to arr...
Can you believe it?! I still knit! It's rare for me to have time to knit anything other than pilot caps these days, they are keeping me busy. But I managed to sneak in this cutie pie of a quick ...
We are lucky enough to have a Montmorency Cherry Tree on our property. It's a fairly young tree and this year I got to the cherries before the birds did. I was able to stash away a lovely and ve...
It was just the perfect night for a bonfire and some marshmallow roasting last night. We let the little ones stay up extra late to catch fireflies too. Then, after we put the kids to bed, Greg and ...
Last year my visual garden crush was on our husk cherries. This year it was on our garlic scapes. I ate my very first garlic scape about four years ago when we were members of a local CSA. My frien...
