One rhythm I’m glad to return to: Gratitude Friday.  Because no matter how hard the week, there are always blessings, when we stop to remember them.

A rare morning where Ella happily gets up with Ben, leaving Mama to sleep in – bliss!

The delight of giving our CSA members their share of the 2009 harvest.

Returning to our bakery with fresh ideas.

Books.  Always books.

The NOFA Winter conference tomorrow, where Ben will be presenting, and Brookfield Farm’s Full Belly Dance Benefit.

Dinner at our own table.  Parsnip soup with raw cream, lamb chops, sauteed cabbage.  The gifts of the earth.

Time with friends, and time with the new and wonderful PVHG board.

Dreams of next growing season.

The joy Ella reminds us to see in our days.

Blessings to you, friends.
