It’s been a wildly busy summer, not all of it good. But a week of camping near a beautiful local beach, time with the grand littles, and flogging the garden, wood pile and harvests.. it’s been, for the most part, enjoyable, fruitful and satisfying. Today I finally found the time to clean up the garlic, make a couple of pretty braids for the kitchen and separate baskets of “to eat” and “to plant” in a couple of months.

I know what should be blooming, singing, or visiting any time, but I revel in the surprises. Over the summer, a frog moved into the front gardens. What a sweet marker of the returning health of this tiny bit of land! I adore hearing his frog songs at night, mixed in with the sounds of the night chorus.
