Magic Is Everywhere

Magic Is Everywhere

Hello readers and friends! I had a bit of a walk earlier, and after that I was milling around in my backyard when a couple of things popped out to me. You know, it says in my bio that I’m always searching for the magic in our world, but the truth is that I stopped […]

There She Blooms

There She Blooms

I spotted this rose today. It’s trying to bloom at the end of January. Sometimes the most exciting and beautiful things in life come in the darkest season, when they are least expected. Happy blue moon! 🌚

Finding the Joy Place

Finding the Joy Place

“Hustle” is the word for my household between November & February. The holiday season tends to be packed with events nearly every weekend with some part of our large family.

Maybe it’s the fact that I moved a few months ago, out of the “village” where I raised my babies, away from a […]

Lana Del Rey’s Cover of Chelsea Hotel

My husband played this song on the guitar the other night, and it reminded me how much I love it. Chelsea Hotel #2, a Leonard Cohen song from his 1974 album New Skin for the Old Ceremony. This Lana Del Rey version is my favorite. Now here’s Leonard Cohen performing his song, along with a story […]
