The simplest things are often the very things that make you feel alive

I spent last weekend at a cabin in the woods with my friend Lissy and her golden retriever Morris, having good conversations, making pine needle tea, reading books, hiking long distances, climbing trees, and enjoying the sun. Even though my body ached a bit from all the walking, I couldn’t have been happier. We even found a partial deer skull (it’s on the last slide for those who don’t want to see it)! Going outside truly never gets old

Edit: nooooo @Pixelfed why have you started cropping photos? Please stahp

I've been having fun the past couple days checking out and adding to https://beta.fallingfruit.org - an amazing resource for foragers the world over. I'm not adding my fave spots because I selfishly would like to keep them sekrit, mwahaha, and hopefully I'll get over that because seriously, there's wild food in abundance all over the city and this scarcity mindset does nobody any good.

Better habitats for forest farming wild leeks could help future foraging demands

(... I'm lucky to have a lot of them on my farm)

Storm damage left us with an excess of wisteria and trumpet vines from an area of downed trees, so we decided to make lemonade with our four days of power outage and see what we could do with them. Behold one wreath, ready to be decorated. Or maybe just left as is. Not sure yet. Think it will help ward off demons?

One large wreath made of bare weathered wisteria and trumpet vines. Simple round-and-round construction with a single spiral wrap to bind it all together around the outside.

Close-up view of three deep orange trumpet vines blossoms fully open and two unopened blossoms in the same cluster nestled behind. Apple green foliage in the background.

Close-up up of a spear of purple-red delphinium blossoms, every blossom perfectly rimmed in darker purple. The centers are creamy yellow. It stands in a butterfly garden against various shades of green.

Close-up of a black swallowtail butterfly resting among a cluster of rose-colored coneflowers. The butterfly's wings are outstretched and have a double row of spots, the inside a radiant blue and the outside perfectly spaced white. The delicate tips that form the tiny swallowtails are black with fine white edging along the inside curves.

Sumac gummies. Topped with sumac sugar. I added some cane sugar to my prepared sumac water, boiled with agar-agar, and let it set before cutting into pieces. It’s tasty! But I think next time I’ll add more cane sugar to the water and roll the pieces in the sumac sugar instead of sprinkling it on top. Next on the agenda: sumac syrup.
