How is everyone doing? It’s turned a little chilly this week in Minnesota (not surprising by any means), but the weekend is looking decent and we’ll be heading to my brother’s on the farm to celebrate the end of a safe and successful harvest, Halloween, and some serious duck hunting for the guys. I’m bringing […] Read more…
I just had the BEST weekend. I cooked, I baked, I washed the sheets on every bed in the house, I planted my garlic and cut down my hydrangeas and peonies, I grocery shopped and menu planned for the upcoming week, I wrote blog posts (yes plural!), I vacuumed up the dog hair (a necessary […] Read more…
