Garden Patch: December 2012

http://www.gardenpatchadventures.com/2012_12_01_archive.html

Thankful, Grateful, Blessed, the Works. Well, it's the day after Christmas and I am just now getting around to posting pictures from Thanksgiving. This is what happens in December. Pictures and posts are replaced with trees and decorations and I wouldn't have it any other way. So it will take me a few days to get my Christmas reflections in order, but my Thanksgiving thoughts are more than ready. As is tradition, we celebrated Thanksgiving Day at my parents' house. And the purchase of our best tree yet!

Garden Patch: The Best Ride

http://www.gardenpatchadventures.com/2013/06/the-best-ride.html

It's 6:50 am on my first day of summer. I should clearly be a. asleep or b. if awake, luxuriating in the idea of not working for the next eight weeks. But the truth is, I woke up with knots in my stomach. I miss my students. I have spent more time with these kids over the past two years. Than with anyone else. There will undoubtedly be a great void in my heart and my life for weeks to come. This group of students is literally the best ever. And so, so helpful. They love to learn. They love my stories.

Garden Patch: The Big 3-Woah

http://www.gardenpatchadventures.com/2013/04/the-big-3-woah.html

Written 4.9.13). So two days ago I turned 30. And after months of anxiety about how it would feel, it came, it went, and I conquered it :). It sounds so weird. In the past two days no one has asked me how old I am. And for all I know, when it happens, I will pull one of those 'cough as I say the number' type deals so they can't understand me. But right this second I am so full of the joy that is still overflowing from this weekend, that there is simply no room for anything else. How cool is that? House w...

Garden Patch: Baked Brie Stuffed with Craisins and Pecans!

http://www.gardenpatchadventures.com/2010/12/baked-brie-stuffed-with-craisins-and.html

Baked Brie Stuffed with Craisins and Pecans! Ok- let's get down to business. You guys have GOT to make this brie. Extravaganza for all of your upcoming holiday parties. It is one of my (very few) specialties because it's relatively quick and easy to make, and it is an absolute crowd. As in I'm not sure my family and friends would still come over if I didn't make it. But seriously, it's. 1/2 cup cranberry relish. 1 egg, beaten and mixed with 1/4 cup water to make an egg wash. Cookie cutters of your choice.

Park #82 – Forest Capital Museum State Park. There is more to this state park than meets the eye. While I was taking photos of the park entrance sign I saw a marker for a former WWII era air base on the site, and across the street was a rusty old Perry Motor Lodge neon sign that was just almost gone from neglect.
