morning, noon and night

fairy lights inside and flurries outside...

a corner in our bedroom this morning.

"our" dirt road.

mixed greens, grated raw beets, chopped orange bell pepper,

scallions, sliced tangerine, fruit juice sweetened cranberries,

chopped walnuts, drizzled with balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

it was our contribution to a crafter's lunch, complemented by

fabulous chili, red hen bread and chocolate chip cookies.

and tea. lots of tea. 

birch hearts, linen hearts, embroidered dala horses and
a sweet bird (kristen's beautiful stitches!)

 are just some of the things we four worked on today in ellen's kitchen.

(it is so good to have gretta back with us, even for just a little bit).

then it was on to the green mountain girls farm

to pick up our humanely raised turkey bird.  

fingers are crossed for safe travel conditions

for our special few (and for everyone else's beloveds)!

more kooser tomorrow...
