Books, Writing, & The Cozy Life
Good morning, Monday! This weekend was cloudy, cool, and rainy - perfect for staying inside and doing cozy things. I chose to revive my sourdough starter and get a loaf of bread started last night (I'm trying this method, we'll see how it goes) and I baked a pan of brownies yesterday morning (non-sourdough batter,...

June! I guess it's really summer now? It has certainly felt like it this week. I have been plodding along with nothing out of the ordinary to share here, which is probably a good thing. I have been spending a lot of time with my journals, trying to come up with a plan for tackling... Continue Reading →
Wednesday! I have to admit that I've had a hard time figuring out the days this week; I've kept my notebooks close so that I could confirm my place in the space/time continuum. My blog keeps me grounded and honest! We are in the midst of a beautiful week with more warm and sunny days... Continue Reading →
Happy Wednesday, friends! So far this week we've been enjoying sunny skies and lots of birds. I've added three birds to my life list (Magnolia Warbler, Killdeer, and the Belted Kingfisher), which is delightful. We are expecting rain this afternoon that will last through the evening, but that's okay. We've had plenty of time outside... Continue Reading →
Hello to a new week! I had a quiet and relatively restful weekend and am so ready to start a new week. My notebook is set up and ready to be covered in another week's worth of activities and our homeschooling schedule is filled to the brim; I have ideas to take to the library... Continue Reading →

Today's post is just a quick update on my life right now, which has been a strange mix of busy and quiet. I thought the... Continue Reading →
Happy Wednesday! I'm thrilled to share that I've actually finished reading a couple of books this week and that I might be moving past my reading funk? I hope so because the previous few weeks have felt a bit sparse. But I've been reaching for books to fill the quiet moments again and almost everything... Continue Reading →
Happy Wednesday! We are in the middle of another very rainy week; we even had thunderstorms yesterday! A good thunderstorm is one of the things I miss about living in Texas so it's always exciting when I hear the rumbling. The flowers I planted a few weeks ago are extraordinarily happy with all of this... Continue Reading →
Today is May 1st! It's a return to our typical routine and I am so relieved because I've missed sitting at the table and learning along with the kids. I feel so lucky to be able to homeschool and wouldn't trade it for anything. I know that breaks are just as important as routines so... Continue Reading →
Thank you all for the encouragement lately! It's a rainy school vacation week and we're all going just a little bit stir-crazy. To top it off, Matthew's work schedule changed on Monday and Tuesday so I was parenting solo from noon through bedtime. Not ideal but we all survived and things are going back to...
