A long-overdue dentist visit turned into a comedy of generational misunderstandings, but at least I left cavity-free. Meanwhile at the farm, the evergreens have arrived, wreath workshops are starting, the peonies are here, and ranunculus are sprouting like crazy. ’Tis the season!
Ever have one of those moments that feels too perfectly timed to be random? This one involved an old Chevy van, a move, and a little nudge from the universe. Plus, what farming has taught me about faith, work, and the magic in between.
When I look out the window, our good old Denali — the 25-year-old “farm truck” — is still faithfully parked out there, squeaks and all. After yet another round of repairs (bringing the total to a cool $1K), she’s ready for wreath season hauls again. Meanwhile on the farm, the first frost is flirting with Cape May, 200 Dutch irises are tucked in, and peonies are on their way.
