August Begins

 

Happy Lughnasadh/Lammas to all who celebrate!

As we arrive at the half-way point in the Wheel of the Year may we remember these words shared by The Raven and the Mystic:

" ... Lughnasadh/Lammas with its themes of harvest, abundance and gratitude, and also of hunger so poignant in the world.

May we remember to sow seeds of generosity, compassion and empathy today.

May I never hunger
May you never hunger
May we never hunger
May all be fed ."

On The Last Day of August

 

It might be the last day of August but some people in this family are thiking about the upcoming ski season already (and ordering new skis)! xo 

A Peachy Sunday

Even though I have so many photos to share from last week I couldn't help but feel like this one just had to be shared today. We've spent most of the weekend canning (yesterday tomato sauce, today peaches) and as soon as I saw how sweet and cheery this picture was I knew the other blog posts needed to wait a little longer so this one could be shared on the day it was actually taken. These peaches are amazingly delicious and will be a lovely reminder of our peach picking adventure this winter when we enjoy them!
