A change in the wind

Posted on May 6, 2018 by ilyiglesias • Leave a comment

I can’t blame the garden; it has been productive and beautiful and engaging in ways I feign to describe with words. I can’t blame work; its been busy and all-encompassing and evolving, but it isn’t everything. I can’t blame the friends and family: they have been wonderful and funny and I just wish I had … Continue reading →

Happy Turkey Day

Ahhh the holidays- a time for family, a break from work, and in the case of Chris and I… a chance to head up to the snow. On Thursday morning, while I frantically packed up for our adventure (…where were those snow mittens again?), Chris paddled out for a couple quick waves and stumbled upon … Continue reading →

Have you seen our chicken?

“She is about this big (I hold my hands outstretched), has a fabulous lady beard and tends to trill loudly, if you see her please let me know!” I said over and over and over again a couple weeks ago as I sprinted up and down our neighborhood streets shouting out for our missing hen, … Continue reading →

Falling into Fall

There was something about the crispy morning air on Friday, something familiar, and fresh, and welcome. It wasn’t immediately obvious what had happened, and them, as I snuggled back under our down cover it hit me- fall has arrived!! In our small coastal town, we have an extended summer, which often seeps its way into … Continue reading →

Back in bloom!

As much as I love spending every free waking moment around our little abode; enjoying the t-rex trundle of the chickies running around the yard, the sun baked sweetness of a newly ripened cherry tomato, the smell of fresh dirt rising after watering, and watching time pass before my eyes through the growth of squash … Continue reading →

Summer in a glass

Nothing beats a sunny day along the coast during summer, and I can’t think of anything more devine after a long day at the beach than sitting on the porch with a refreshing drink, plucked from the garden! Today’s delight included some of my favorites: fresh mint, stevia leaves as sweetener, the citrus kick of … Continue reading →

Seasonal tea-reats

Posted on May 3, 2017 by ilyiglesias • Leave a comment

Easily one of my favorite garden activities involves plucking plants and immersing them in warm water to create a herbal tea treat! This spring I have already been able to reap the rewards of abundant rain and sun by harvesting the now overabundant crimson clover, red clover and chamomile that have recently sprung up!  As I may … Continue reading →

Last fall feast

Posted on April 22, 2017 by ilyiglesias • Leave a comment

As spring is now in full bloom, the space previously allocated to fall treats has quickly been torn up to make room for spring and summer visitors. Just like spring and summer tourists the world over, the veggies flocking in are only likely to stick around for a few months to soak up the sunshine and enjoy the … Continue reading →
