By Melanie Eberhardt I still don’t know why she gave me this sweatshirt. I’d seen her wear it a number of times but don’t recall ever making a comment about it. We had spent the afternoon in front of her wood burning stove watching old black and white movies and sipping hot tea with honey. It [...]
I’m so happy we’re officially in Soup Season. Don’t you love soup? And its heartier bro, stew? I got this recipe a few months ago from a friend. Then I promptly lost the little post-it note I wrote it down on, but that’s OK because it’s so simple to make and with just four ingredients really [...]

2008 Thoroughbred Rosa is a trip. She’s smart, funny, kind, beautiful, and understated. Opinionated but always calm. She’s bold, curious, and a social butterfly. She’s classy. She would rather meander and watch the scenery than work. She's Ferdinand the Bull and his flowers. She puts it in park when she’s bored and nothing will move her. [...]
