Last January I was interning on a raw milk dairy, living in a tiny house, and to be honest I had never felt so alone. I remember New Year’s Eve. Falling asleep before midnight. The first time ever. I had always loved staying up late dreaming up New Year’s resolutions. But I was exhausted, lonely, […]

Fernwood Creamery
I am currently interning on a small raw milk dairy farm, Fernwood Creamery. I milk cows and live in a tiny house on the property! I don’t know why trying to describe living and working on a dairy is so hard for me. Usually, I get a spur of the moment idea for a post then it turns into […]
Happy Valentine’s Day, Honey!
Happy Valentine’s Day! I wanted to share something sweet. These pictures are from Christmas time, but red and white are Valentine-y too, and this raw honey is oh so sweet! This little guy helped me fill a few dozen jars of honey to sell in the milk house. Today we flew paper airplanes! What little […]
4 Things I Did This Weekend
One thing you should know is that I don’t like to drive. When I lived in Seattle for school, I didn’t need a car. I could walk or take the bus anywhere that I needed to go. So after 3 years of not driving a car, I got really nervous if I knew I had […]

Then I travelled to England for the month of July to nanny for one of my professors, who quickly became a great friend. Her daughter was 3 at […]
Create Joy
The other day I was thinking about this New Year’s Eve. I stayed home alone. I was up in the loft of my tiny house, journaling and watching Bones or Buffy the Vampire Slayer – I can’t remember which, David Boreanaz is my favorite. I felt like I was missing out. It was a friend’s birthday and […]

Preparing for the New Year {Day 4}
How many of you are like me: on New Years Eve you think of five things on the spot, call them ‘resolutions’ and expect yourself to wake up New Year’s Day with the magical motivation to accomplish them all? Like, I am going to do yoga every morning, I am going to read my Bible […]
Preparing for the New Year {Day 3}
During the weekend, it is easy for routine to be thrown out the window. I notice this especially with my sleeping habits. I stay up late, and sleep in too late. Then, come Monday morning, it is so hard to get out of bed energized and ready for the day. That is why I not only […]
