Simplicity: August 2015
http://simplicitybylateblossom.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Doing Simple Things Well. Monday, August 31, 2015. One of the most fundamental of card-making tools is the bone folder. This handy tool allows you to fold even 120# card stock without it looking like a kindergartner folded a piece of construction paper against the grain and awkwardly pressed the crease. My apologies if I offended any kindergartners. Then, it looks just fine. If the paper is thick, even folding with the grain looks better when you've scored. So you need a bone folder. And a butter knife.

The Singing Farmwife: February 2015
http://themeadowview.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Singing in the Kitchen. Saturday, February 21, 2015. Snow Day on the Farm. Any snow over four inches deep means that the work on the farm is doubled. Today we have at least 14 inches and it's still snowing. First Joe opens the driveway so we can get out to feed the cows. Halfway through, he must stop to repair the four-wheeler. Then, Luke and I go down to the creek to knock open a water hole for thirsty. While he's doing that, his wife entertains herself in the truck taking selfies. Links to this post.

Singing in the Garden. Singing in the Kitchen. How I Got Here. Tuesday, June 23, 2015. Please Don't Burp on My Porch. She doesn't. The doe waits patiently on the other side, ears and tail flicking, as her baby runs up and. Down the barrier until it finds a hole big enough to wiggle through. Then the two of them bound through the blowing swells of grass until they are hidden from my sight. Deer that are standing or on the run are the norm. The doe shifted around, ears still on alert. Then I saw her re...

Gratitude can transform common days into thanksgivings." William Arthur Ward. Thursday, August 27, 2015.
